    Windows 7 Burning DVDs for restore and backup for Windows 7

    This should be a simple task. Watched the Windows video; followed the directions, but still got lost. Any simpler way of doing this? My problem came when I was asked "how I wanted to store the info", but the only thing offered was a "D" hard drive. Was not able to insert "DVDs" THANKS FOR ANY HELP
