I have several AVI video files on my HDD that I had captured from an old VHS tape of the family using Adobe Premier Elements 1.0 (old version).

Now I need the space on the HDD so I want to download it to a DVD (or several DVD's).

How do you "split" a 9.12GB avi video into "parts" so you can save all of the 9.12GB video?

In other words, how can I put 9.12GB of avi video on a 4.7GB DVD?

I have 3 other avi video files on my HDD (6.74GB, 2.21GB, and 1.05GB) that also need to put on disk.

I understand the last two (the 2.21GB and the 1.05GB video will "fit" on a 4.7GB DVD..........but how are the files that are larger than 4.7GB managed properly?

How can you put "part" of a avi video on one DVD and the rest on another DVD? How and when do you know when to stop recording?

And, can I do this with Nero's SmartStart?

I have a few photos on my computer here at work that I deleted but I want them to completely go away so they are not traceable. They are mostly of my wedding and stuff, but I don't feel comfortable with them possibly being looked at later on. Is there I way I can get rid of them without having to have administrator access?

I'm pretty sure I'm getting about 50 spam emails a day, now, trying to sell me "top quality luxury watches". Just wondering if anyone has ever actually bought a watch from someone who sent them random spam.

Congress is going to pass a law that before you can buy a computer you have to take a test to show that you know how to use it.

I just got my computer back from the repair shop, x-mas hijinks by family and now everything is huge. The windows and text seem bigger, the task bars are giant and even the pages i load inside of firefox are too big to fit in one window. I have windows xp home.

Anyone know how to fix this?

I took some short videos on my kodak easy share camera and wanted to make a larger video using Windows Movie Maker. By now I've realized that's not going to work until I can convert them into Windows files. I tried "Save As" but there's only one option and I tried "Open With" to see if I could open them in WMP but that didn't work either. I only have average computer skills and I'm out of ideas. Anyone know of an easy way I can convert?
