I am missing something here.

I have a brand new clean install of Vista (yesterday) without ANY other
Burning software loaded, and I have the same problem. Media Player 11 does
not see my Burner. This is same PC Hardware burned DVD's the day before
with
XP Pro and Nero, so that also cannot be a factor.

Any other solutions anyone?

I have a totally clean install of Vista with no other Burning software
loaded, and I have this same symptom with a known good hardware setup
which
worked fine on my previous OS with Nero etc.

You have identified 4 different CD burning applications on your PC:

Nero
Roxio,
Creative,
MusicMatch

Roxio is most likely the culprit and has caused burning problems a lot in
WMP. I have seen some posts of burning problems in WMP caused
potentially
by Nero. Like I said, try uninstalling the software one at a time.
Start
with Roxio.



Any other possible solutions anyone?

When I click on the burn tab in wmp 11 the icon in the top right
hand
corner
comes up and says 'connect a burner and restart the player'. I have
a
dvd/cd
burner attached already that works with every other program I have
(eg
Roxio,
Creative, Musicmatch etc). In tthe devices tab in options the dvd
burner
shows up ok. ANy ideas why I can't burn?
