I made a dvd on iDVD on my macbook but my macbook can't burn discs, my windows laptop can though, is there a way I can burn the project to a disc on the windows? Like a way I can convert it or something?

Go to File > Save as Disk Image ...

Then you should be able to burn that file as a DVD on a PC.

You'll have to use something like Nero or Roxio to burn the image file as a DVD on the PC.

You're not trying to burn video, you want to burn an image.

Yes, because the image is formatted by iDVD as a video DVD.

could you maybe take some caps going through the process? I'd really appreciate it because I need this done by tomorrow morning and I'm a total newbie with all of this

I don't have Roxio, or any other Windows burning software, so I cannot help you there, maybe someone else will come along and help.

EDIT: Try this (http://www.imgburn.com/) software, it seems straightforward ... choose the img file, click burn.
