When I try the output to CD option MM2 refuses to recognize my CD/RW disks
with either a CD-R or CD-RW installed. I found a Microsoft KB article that
recommends removing Veritas/H-P DLA software to clear this problem and using
MS built-in functionality, but that isn't installed. However, I do have
Roxio's DirectCD installed.

I guess my question is "Does this MM2problem occur with any third party
software RW software installed?"

It's no big deal, as I can save it to hard drive and then copy it to disk,
but I am curious.
 
Hi there,

I've had the same problem with my DVD/CD burner device
and the fix is always as follows:

(1) go to MyComputer
(2) R-Click the drive in question
(3) Select Properties
(4) L-Click Recording
(5) Make sure that the "Enable CD recording on this
drive" option-box has a checkmark in it, if not just L-
click the box.

I'm guessing the when you record a DVD this option gets
disabled (???)... so you have to re-select this option
when dealing with CD's.

Good luck.

Harry
