Saige Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Okay. I have a question about my CD/CD-RW drive. I used to be able to transfer my jpeg files onto a CD to save them, through CD Writing Wizard. I guess I should mention that I am using Windows XP. Anyway, I had some jpeg files in my documents and wanted to burn them onto a CD-RW. This is what happened. I highlighted the file and then, under "File and Folder Tasks" I clicked on "Move the file". Then a box came up that read, "Move Items". I highlighted my CD drive and cliked "Move". A small balloon comes up at the bottom of the page telling me that I have files waiting to be written onto a CD. (I should mention that the box does not always come up, only 1 out of about 6 tries) Anyway, when I get this balloon I click on it and the "Files waiting to be written box" comes up, with my drive name at the top. When I click on the "Write these files to CD" command, under "CD Writing Tasks" I get this annoying "BONK" and nothing happens. However, when I eject the CD, then is when the CD Writing Wizard box appears and tells me that it cannot continue because I do not have the CD in the drive. When I put the CD back in the drive by pushing it in, the drive will burn the files then. I should also mention that I have been able to, with this same drive, copy CD's through "Record Now" and I can play music CD's. I just cannot seem to copy files the way I used to, and so I am wondering if anyone out there can understand this mess and help to explain it to me so I can fix it. Do I need to do a format and set everything to rights again, I cannot imagine I need a new CD drive. Quote
TCH-Don Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Welcome to the forums Saige Can you still copy CD's with Record Now? If so can you copy the files with Record Now? Quote
Saige Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 Welcome to the forums Saige Can you still copy CD's with Record Now? If so can you copy the files with Record Now? Sorry it took me awhile to get back to you. I can copy CD's with no issues. When I tried to burn digital pictures with Record Now the program went through all of the correct paces however, when I checked the CD afterward, there was no data on it. Very strange. Quote
