cd burn problem?
i have a few small video files on my HD & when i try to copy them to a cd (i used burn4free & real player) only the largest file seems to get copied! The total size is only 125 MB so plenty space. I am using a cd-rw.

I am not familiar with Burn4Free, but why are you using it WITH Real Player (which can also burn) - surely ONE burning program is enough. (I actually used Real Player last night to burn some music files to a CD-RW, which worked OK, but it was only for experiment and I later erased the CD-RW).
I think you might be better off with one of the mainsteam burners such as Nero or Roxio, which often come bundled with CD drive hardware.
I only use CD-RWs which have been formatted with Nero's InCD and can then be used like a large floppy disk so files can be dragged & dropped, or copied, moved, deleted at will.
You don't say if you want to copy your movies for backup purposes or as an alternative means of storage. Either way, assuming you want to keep them, burn to a CD (not RW) and if you use Multisession mode (Nero or Roxio), not Finalize mode, you would be able to add more data later.
