Burning video discs (DVD, VCD etc.) isn't possible through Windows Explorer,
only with Movie Maker or DVD Maker so how are you trying to burn these data
discs? Third party burning programs aren't necessarily compatible with each
other as some of them install utilities that run continuously in the
background and may conflict so it's best to only install one at a time. From
your symptoms it does seem as if your computer has some app blocking the
sleep and screen saver functions, possibly also tying up access to the
burner. Some sort of media player would be an obvious candidate but it could
be something else.
