Hi Peter et al,
I tried this but I can't seem to find a button or whatever that starts
the burn process.
I used to be able to insert a music cd etc into my cd drive and when the
software had temporarily copied the contents, I was then prompted for a
blank disc, which when inserted got busy copying. When the process was
finished the finished cd would pop out.
Are you using windows 7?
Might look for a windows 7 compatible version of easy cd creater.
Cheers
