I want to make a backup DVD of my data in the finder-but it doesn`t work.

When I insert a blank DVD disc copy opens up-but that`s all. I cannot drag folders from the "Burn image" window over to the disc copy window.

Anybody got a link to a walkthrough for burning DVD`s? (and yes-I bought the right DVD for the superdrive).
My system is a PB17 Rev. A with 10.2.6.

Thanks

Check what you have blank DVDs set to do in System Preferences -> Hardware. I have mine set to ask me, but if you want to burn data in the Finder, you could say "Open in Finder".
