Hi Rory,

Suggestions:

CD-R Drive or CD-RW Drive Is Not Recognized As a Recordable Device

Save the file below to your hard drive. Navigate to where you saved it and
double click the file. A confirmation dialog will appear when the script is
done. You may need to reboot for the change to take effect.

I have a similar problem. The CD-Drive is recognized by XP as writable, but somehow the wizard doesn't like my CDs anymore. It always stops with an error message that claims that there is no writable CD in the drive. If I use the same CD with a separate burning software (Easy CD Creator) everything works just fine. Also Windows Media Player cannot write to the CD (no device detected
The problem started after installing the extra burning software. But uninstalling it again didn't cure it

Any help would be appreciated
