Hi Larry,

Nero works better with Windows XP's Built-In CD Burner disabled.

If you want to enable Windows XP's Built-In CD Burner and use it instead
of Nero you can.

Whatever you want to do, it's up to you. You can enable or disable it as
often as you like. The trick is to remember where and how to do it.

Nero should find whatever drive that is recognized as a recordable device,
a drive that can Write/Record/Burn CDs.

You can not Write/Record/Burn CDs with a CD-ROM drive, a CD-ROM drive is
Read Only. A CD-ROM drive can only Play/Read CDs. A CD-R/RW drive will
Read or Write/Record/Burn CDs. CD-R/RW stands for Recordable/ReWritable.

Thanks very much for your reply , i am going to wait until mourning to
disable xp burner. i went to the support site that you sent me and this
dumb old man can understand about half of what it says.

I got a cd-rom and a dvd/cd-rw drive in my computer now , well my
cd-rom
drive is going bad and i have a sony cd-r/rw that i was going to use as a
cd-rom that would make me have two cd-rw's. Will this be a problem?

From a NERO readme...

[[Go to your Windows Explorer or My Computer and right click on your
Recorders drive letter, and then go to the "Recorder" Tab and in that
window disable the option for "Enable Recording on this Drive".]]

If you want to use Windows XP's Built-In CD Burner at a later time, you
have to check Enable Recording on this Drive for your drive.

Enable XP's recording wizard

Open My Computer, right click the CD Drive icon and then click
Properties. Click the Recording tab.
Check: Enable CD recording on this drive
Click: Apply
Click: OK

Enable CD recording on this drive
This setting turns on the built-in CD recording features included with
Windows XP.
Third-party CD/DVD burning programs sometimes disable this setting.
You can only enable CD recording for one device at a time.

Only One CD-R or CD-RW Disk Drive Can Be Used to Create Compact Discs in
Windows XP
