Hi again , what burning software you using ? EZCD creates problems for a lot of machines
with XP , yet others can use it without errors. Try opening a run box and typing
services.msc, from the list find "imapi CD burning com service" (native XP burning)
right click it and choose properties , from there set the startup type as "disabled",
do the same for "Indexing Service", then reboot and see if it picks up any, post
back how it goes. Case
