Dear Don, I tried your other option with XP. But when I insert the blank CD in an already on Laptop with XP nothing pops up. I do not get any dialog box like you said. Can you pl. advice.

Version 5 may not be compatible with XP. Check the website for patches or updates. I think there is a version 5.x that works with XP. WinXP can also write to CD. With the system on, insert a CD into the writer. XP will search for autorun and if not found will open a dialog box asking what you want to do with the CD. Make the appropriate selection then click OK. Don Do YOU want a gmail account invitation?
