Using windows xp.

What is the name brand and model of the CD/DVD drive you have?
(If it was not designed to write to DVDs, it won't do it.)

What third party CD/DVD writing software are you utilizing?
(Windows XP cannot write to DVDs natively.)

Windows XP can burn CDs, but has no ability to burn DVDs. You need
third-party software for that.

I am using third part software,

What software are you using?

but the "cd writing wizard" pop up in the

The built-in Windows CD-writing software? Just shut it down, and open
your third-party DVD-writing software.

Windows won't write DVDs, only cds. You'll need a third party program.
