Copy files to DVDs

I have loads of pictures which were taking at a hockey tournament in Japan of the different games played plus the activities after and during spare time these are all on different files I need to copy them from a DVD which the Japanese gave me to several DVD`s to give to all the parents of these hiockey players I would like to copy paste them to a DVD as I would like each file separately I tried to put them on a DVD the normal way but they all run in one straight bunch so have to look at the whole bunch at once. I need to know is there any way I can do this on a DVD. I use windows XP have a LG DVD player and writer. The software that was included was nero.
Thanks

Create a new folder on your hard drive. Copy and paste the files from the DVD into this folder. Then open Nero Express, choose the DVD mode, then create a data disk. Drag and drop the files. Burn.

Could you explain exactly what it is that you want for your end result. I'm not clear on what you're trying to do in regard to not wanting them to "run in one straight bunch."

I just want to make DVD`s of sevaral files of pictures. It actually worked what the first reply told me to do but it took an hour to make the DVD was sort of looking for a copy and paste way or drag and drop like we can do on the CDRW . I have to make about 20 DVD`s Looking for a faster way. But if none will do the long way.
Thanks

for 20 bucks get another burner and just rip from 1 disc to a new dvd if you have the room in your tower that is its the easiest solution,also helps heaps for copying discs

Once you do the initial layout and get to the Burn page - simply change the number of copies from 1 to 20 or whatever. It will eject the first one when it's done and prompt for another blank. Just keep feeding it till it's done. When it's all done, Nero should ask you if you want to save the project when you try to exit - save it so you can just reopen the project if you need more later.

Thanks for the help was able to get them done took about 4o minutes for each one which was faster than first few I did. I didn`t use nero downloaded a free one which did it much faster.
