Do you have a DVD-ROM drive in your first bay? If you do then I would think that you load your first bay with the DVD that you want to copy from and a blank DVD-R in the second drive to copy to. Start your sonic software and copy it. If I am wrong I'm sure someone out there will correct me.

Ron: I think you are wrong… DVD copying is illegal and no brand name software will do it and live! MPEG will hunt them down and put them out of business!

There are some hacks that will do it, but you will not get any help here.

Don't you mean the MPAA?

Yes...what you are asking to do is illegal.

Daddyjaxx: No I meant Motion Picture Experts Group. They sue faster than Apple and mostly win.

Who is MPAA?

I was offering advice on data and MP3 transfer only, not movies. The new DVD-R's and RW's offer several gigs of storage as opposed to 700mbs for a CD-R. I wouldn't do it, even if I had the equipment to do it with, which I don't as you can see by my system config.

I did not mean to imply that you were advocating illegal activity.

No prob Jim, I just wanted to clarify the mix-up. I should have paid more attention to the "movie" part of the original question anyway by mentioning the legality issues involved.
