I am trying to clean up the computer a little but for some reason it is saying it doesn't recognize the cr2 files. Any ideas on what I need to do? Didn't know there would be any problem putting RAW files on a DVD...EricL

I am running Widows XP Professional. I have tried several different avenues: Windows Media Player, Roxio Digital/Media Player, dragging and dropping. Nothing seems to be working. I have also tried doing non RAW pics with no luck either. EricL [SIZE=2]

I tried Windows RAW viewer and it won't let me delete or move the RAW files and also prompting me that the file is in use. After uninstalling it it went away. Now what burning S/W are you using to burn DVD w/. I use Nero Ultra Edition and I don't have a problem. I've never used Windows builtin S/W to burn DVD but have used it to burn CDRs. I don't believe Windows Builtin burning S/W supports DVDs.

If you have PS then try viewing your files in Bridge first then exporting etc etc. Shouldnt be a big deal at all. Wayne
