How do I use Windows XP's CD burning feature?

Start Windows Explorer (Win + E).

Right-click your CD-R drive and select Properties.

Select the Recording tab (if this tab isn't available, your device doesn't support CD burning).

You can then set the following options:

Set your options and click OK.

Insert a blank CD-R disc into your CD burner (you don't need the blank CD-R disc until step 4, but it's a good idea to insert it when you begin).

Drag the appropriate files/folders to the CD-R drive, or select the files/folders and from the context menu, select Send To, Writable CD.

After you copy all the files, select the CD-R drive and you'll see the waiting files as "Files to add to the CD."

Right-click the CD-R drive, and select Write to CD (if this option isn't available, you don't have a blank CD-R disc in the drive).

Enter a name for the CD-R disc, and click Next.

The system will write the files to the CD-R disc.

After the system writes all the files, it will eject the CD-R disc (if you chose that option above).

Click Finish.
