Its a brand new computer, with a dvd drive, I'm using dvds and it does start burning and stops burning about a quarter of the way in.

Is the drive "trying" to burn it, or does it refuse to burn the DVD altogether? If it is the former, try using a different burning program. If it is just a set of files, not arranged like a movie DVD, try ImgBurn. If it is refusing to burn altogether, then you may have an older drive, one that is only capable of burning either DVD+R(W) or DVD-R(W), but not both, and you are using the opposite type of DVD that it wants/requires.
The only option, in most cases, is to get a new drive, or else get the other kind of DVDs. There are some drives that can be fixed with a firmware update, but not everyone likes doing this.

First, make sure you have a DVD burner drive. Second, use DVDs and not CD-Rs. Third, make sure you have a progra, that is designed for burning DVDs. Finally, make sure you have the rights to the video(s) you are burning.

You have to have software to burn dvds, you can go to compusa and get NVidia software that will let you watch and burn dvd's.

I used to use Cheetah DVD Burner for discs that weren't illegal to copy.
