Here's the way to find out if you have a CD or a DVD:

Put disc in your computer and wait for it to load up.

Open Windows Explorer. Find your CD/DVD drive (usually the D: drive) under "My 
Computer."

Right-click on the CD/DVD drive icon. A menu will pop up.

Choose Properties from the menu. This will open a window with technical information 
about the disc in the drive.

Check the size on the Properties window. If it's under 700 MB, it's probably a 
CD-ROM. If it's over 700MB, it's almost certainly a DVD (a DVD can hold up to 4 GB 
of data, while a CD can only hold up to 700 MB).
