RecordNow & DLA work on my machine.
DLA disables the built in XP burning program.
Have you right clicked on the CD drive icon and clicked use with DLA?
To drag & drop (packet writing) using DLA the RW-CD has to be formatted. To use a RW-CD with XP the disk must NOT be formatted. So to use DLA forget about the XP burner.
Since you can't afford more time to help yourself to learn about the software you are using I can't afford any more time pointing you in the right direction.

| Nicholas,

| I appreciate your help, but I did some reading and web
| searching prior to posting the request. I cannot afford
| any more researching the technology of DC burning just to
| be able to write a new CD...
|
| Some more info - I also tried to use Veritas DLA SW (The
| CD drive is an HP 9100 that comes with it), but no help.
| Got a mesage "drive not accessible. Incorrent function").
|
| I do succeed to write Read-only CDs, as well an an older
| used R/W CD, but not new CDs.
|
| BTW, once the WinXP wizard fails and exit, is the R/W CD
| obsolete?
|
| Mickey.
