    Can I copy a CD to my computer so I can burn a copy?
    « on: November 24, 2007, 12:35:46 PM »
    Is it possible to burn a CD with having 2 CD roms? I'm wondering if there is a way to copy itself to the computer, remove it and then insert a blank CD and burn it back. Not sur eif Windows does this or if shareware is needed.

    Yes. Windows will ask you for blank CD, when it's done with copying original CD to hard drive.

      I do not have windows here at work. How do I initiate this, under tools? or control panel?

        In Vista, if you right-click the CD drive in My Computer, there's an option to copy.  I haven't used XP in a couple of years but I'm thinking there's something similar.

        Windows can copy CDs natively but I find their built-in software definately lacking.  I'd definately check out other applications.

        Right-click the CD drive, and then click "Write these files to CD".
