Hello Jim and list,
The method described below seems quite long winded to me, I have managed to
burn a disk using Windows Media Player on Win7 without having to use the
library, I simply copied the files I wanted to burn to the drive, then chose
"write these files to disk" from the file menu as I normally do on XP, and
followed the instructions in the wizard which opens up.
Regards,
Pete H.
