When I use to go to the properties on my DVD burner, I use to be able to go
to properties and on the record tab select Burn CD's. No when I go to my
burner the properties look just like my CD does. Any help. Thank you in
advance.
 
XP does noy do DVD burns natively. You must use other software is you want
to create DVDs. Some softwares that work well are: Ahead's Nero and
Sonic's Roxio Easy Media Creator.
 
I refer to it as a DVD burner becuase it is in fact a DVD burner, but it also
burns CD's. I can not burn a CD by putting in blank media and haveing a box
appear, and state I go to the drive, drop data, and click burn to disk. This
is not an options. I have some how lost this feature.
 
OK! Head over the Kelly's Korner web page. You should be able to find a
"tweak" to restore the Recording tab (when you right click on the burner's
icon in "My Computer").
 
Went there, downloaded a twek called Enable, Disable CD burning. Installed
still did not work. Right Click drive, select properties and receive the
following tabs, Auto Play, General, sharing and hardware. The same as I get
when I look at the properties on my DVD player.
