O.P.  Windows XP won't creat DVD
I just tried dragging & Dropping data into the DVD+R Drive of my computer. I then clicked on copy to CD. But Windows tels me to insert a CD, when i inserted a DVD it wouldn't work.
The reason i'm using the standard Windows wizard, is because i wanna creata a HighMAT DVD, but Nero doesn't support that (or at least i can't see it).
Can anyone else confirm that Windows can't write onto DVD+R disks? If so, is there software i can use (preferably free) to create my HighMAT DVD

As far as I am aware windows only has the capability of writing to a CD R/RW. I don't think it writes to DVDs. I could be mistaken.

How about installing a virtual burner. You could drag and drop into the virtual burner, and have windows burn a HighMAT disk, but since its a virtual drive, it doesn't actually go to a disk, but you save it as a disk image. Then burn the files from the image to a DVD.

Good idea. Where/how can i set-up this virtual burner?
I will try it as soon as i here back from Panasonic. coz i ended up burning a standard ISO data DVD containing the files (WMA files mainly) but my DVD Player won't play it even though it is HighMAT Picture & Audio compatible (it can play WMA files).
