      CDBurnerXP Pro is pretty good.

          Ok I'm having trouble with it, I do not think it is Vista compatible, because when I start it up, it says that I'm running 98/NT, and it says that it cannot find the drivers. It also is lacking the feature of making coppies of other CDs. Any other suggestions?

          It's not compatible with Vista:

          Operating systems: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/2003 Server.

              Is the built in burner in Vista not any good?

              I have not tried it out yet.

                  It's supposed to be one of the new features of vista - a built in burner.

                  I had a quick play on a friends laptop. Insert blank media and burner window popped up.

                    It seems to be as good as dead unless the author decides to work on it again.

                    Sorry I didn't get back to you...got a little busy and side-tracked.
                    There are some great suggestions here, though.

                      Comments for Burn4Free and ImageBurn. I'm trying out imageburn and it has Vista compatibility. The other one looks sorta dead so I'd rather use one that is updated regularly and has a good rating. Thanks for all your comments! :)
