Everything but your burner is working?????????? Do you mean that your burner is
not detected? You do realize that a burner is detected just like a CD-ROM don't
you? The CD-ROM should be master secondary IDE and the burner should be slave secondary
IDE. This is done by setting the jumpers to master and slave on the CD-ROM and the
burner respectively. Why you are going into the bios setup and changing your LPT1
setting is beyond me! I bet some einstein moron told you to do this. Use Roxio
5 Basic for your burner software and go to the roxio web site for the XP update or
use Clone CD 4.2.0.2 (it's free).
Lots of luck -- you will need it!
