    Problem with disc drive
    « on: October 26, 2008, 03:40:06 PM »
    I have just tried to burn some photographs onto a disc and am getting the error message "You don't have a disc drive capable of burning files to CD or DVD".....I have copied photos on to disc many time on my laptop and have never had this problem.

    Any idea's?

    Thanks

    Does the drive read CDs?

      Try the freeware CDBurnerXP ver. 4.2.3 -->http://cdburnerxp.se/

      Let us know what happens. You could have a bad/weak optical lens in
      your burner.

      Sorry,The USA has ruined the language The United Kingdom loaned us. We do our best not to type gibberish. I Hope you can forgive us.
