Hi Joan ann, I see these options there for my DVD-RW drive D, in Windows Explorer, which sees my DVD-RW Drive D. (Tree view, list view, and the blank CD with 0 items.) I think the point you're making, Joan Ann, is that Windows Explorer should know that there is a blank CD in your CD drive. (In the same way it knows - or should know - if there's a floppy disk in Drive A or a thumb drive, attached.) Perhaps the problem will right itself at some point. Perhaps, select some files you'd like to write to the CD, copy them to clipboard, then see what (if any) additional options appear. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joan Ann Brosnan To: vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, February 09, 2007 2:01 PM Subject: [vicsireland] Re: CD problem Hi Paul and Robbie I thought I could go to Windows Explorer and choose Cd and paste stuff into the blank CD and then choose "burn these items" to CD" from the file menu. The other thing is, if I put a CD into the drive, if I go to send to, the CD option isn't there so, it doesn't seem to be recognizing the blank CD at all.

Why do you want to access a blank CD with the Explorer in the first place? I assume that the explorer can't identify the object in the drive precisely because it's blank and therefore unreadable.

I can play CD's and review tracks in windows explorer with no problems but, if I put a blank CD into the drive and go too windows explorer and choose the D drive, it tells me that "D:\ is not accessible unknown function". Could it be a problem with the CD's I am using? The strange thing is I have tried this using CD's from 2 different boxes.
