[SuperDave]

Use a flash drive.

Depending on the size of the folder...you might want to try emailing it to yourself.

you could use a usb drive

I don't know if this is 100% accurate but i seem to remember that Vista will not burn drag and dropped files to DVD but CD only...
I am not at my Vista beast right now so possibly someone else here can test it...
CDBurnerXPro is a great FREE burning app by the way.

Neither XP, nor Vista can do this...it will work on a CD R/W drive, though.

It's recommended to use another DVD authoring program to do this for DVD R/W drives on an XP or Vista system.
