[bcab] Re: Trying to burn CDs using Windows Media Player

Is he using a sony Vaio by any chance. I had a similar problem, and in the end, did a drive transplant. Hopefully, it isn't that serious, but knowing the make of computer and drive may be useful in solving the problem.

Could he be using the wrong type of media for his CD drive?

Subject: [bcab] Trying to burn CDs using Windows Media Player

Hello,

I apologise for sending this note a second time.
However, the first time I failed to provide a subject line.

I have been contacted by a friend who is having difficulties when it
comes to trying to burn a CD using Windows Media Player.
As far as I understand it he has done the following:
1. rip a CD to the Windows Media player library, 2. select some of the
tracks 3. add the selected tracks to the burn list.

when he clicks the startburn button, he is invited to insert a blank
cd into the drive.
Almost immediately the CD is ejected.

I am not really familiar with Windows media player but when I tried to
replicate the above steps fortunately for me, I found, that I
successfully managed to burn a number of tracks to a CD.

I discovered that I am using the same level of Windows Media Player
namely:
Version
11.0.5721.5230
Product Id
5274-OEM--0011903-00107

If anyone has any insights/ideas/suggestions regarding this situation
I look forward to learning from them and improving my very limited
knowledge in this area.

Many thanks,

Mike.
