i've got a cracked copy of nero ultimate that has been working just fine for me, but i'm about to help my mama out with her compy by doing a wipe and fresh install of windows 7. so i'm gonna have to install all the necessary programs.
i'm wondering if there are any freeware burning utilities out there. something that is to burning utilities as VLC is to media players.
word?

whaaa?
no no, you misunderstand me. i want to find the burning software for her comp, so she has the means should she decide to burn herself a movie or CD or whatever.
i'm set myself. although, i am prepping ahead of time by dloading what i can here because my internet connection is like 5 times faster than hers. but i'll be transferring those exe setup files with a flash drive.
thus far, the freeware programs i'll be giving her are: - VLC - Open Office - 7zip - Google Picasa (basic photo editor) - Chrome - Eset NOD32 antivirus - either spyblock or adaware
that's it so far.

This site has great reviews for windows freeware: http://www.techsupportalert.com/ ImgBurn seems like a good choice.

I have been using CDBurnerXP for a bit over a year now and have not had any problems with it. It burns cd's and Dvd and works on all windows OS's.
edit: ah ha, Imgburn I beleive is the other one I keep hearing about also.

i looked into imgburn. it doesn't seem as though it can burn media discs, only data discs. and from what i understand, windows 7 can do what imgburn is capable of without thirdparty software.
ehh.. fuck it. i doubt she'll ever actually burn a DVD movie. and if she does, i'll just go back out there and help her with that.

yeah. i realized after a while that this thread was entirely useless.
i'm not really that familiar with windows 7, so i didn't realize it simply had those abilities. i apologize. regardless, thank you everyone who took the time to chime in.
