Hi Jim.

Are you sure that you have highlighted your cd or DVD rewriter drive?  I'm 
using an XP machine and can find a record tad when I go in to the drive 
properties.  When was the last time you wrote a cd or DVD with this computer 
and when did you start experiencing the problems?

All the best, Ibrahim.

  Hi Ibrahim,

  Well I have done as you suggested and I don't have a record tab on the tab 
line, only general and hardware. Maybe this is because it's an xp machine, as 
it's present on my vista lap top. Have you any other ideas or as anyone on the 
list any suggestions as to what to try now?

  Thanks.
  Jim.

    Hi Jim.

    If you've had cd and dvd burning software on your computer and removed it, 
its possible that windows native cd writing support has been disabled which 
would explain this problem.  You need to do the following to enable windows cd 
writing capability:
    Firstly, go in to my computer and press alt plus enter on your dvd or cd 
rewriter drive.  Next, find the recording tab and ensure that the box to enable 
cd recording is checked.  Press OK, you may be required to restart your system 
but you should find that you can now access the cd drive when recordable disks 
are inserted.

    All the best, Ibrahim.

      Hi all,

      I have the following problem on a desk top pc. When I put a blank cd or 
dvd in the rom drive, the computer doesn't recognize that the drive is present 
and the following message appears, "D drive not accessible, incorrect 
function.". However, when I put a cd or dvd in the drive with data on them it 
shows up in the pop up window that allows you to explore your files on the 
disk. I can do a copy cd to cd but not from the cd to the computer or the other 
way. Anyone have any suggestions on what my pc rom drive problem is and whether 
   it can be fixed?

      Thanks.
      Jim.
