What CD burning software to use?

[butch84]

I just installed a new cdrw, and easycdcreator doesnt seem to want to work. Can anyone reccomend a use friendly program that can be had cheaply? What do you use?

Any thoughts?

Btw: when i try to use easycd, it says there are no devices available, or sometin like that.

I have an ACER 20x10x40 burner, running on windows xp. I was trying to use easycdcreator platinum (which i really like b/c its simple). Easycd used to work, and i have downloaded the winxp fix, so that should not be a problem. However, my cpoy of easy cd wasnt exactly legal, which might affect things . . .

thoughts?

Did you check if you have DMA on??? Check that first, if its on try it turn it off.

Sounds stupid ,but sometimes it works

easy cd creator 4.0 doesnt work in xp. 5.0 works, though, but i prefer the buitl in software in xp

butch84, if simplicity is what you're after, stick w/ the MS XP built-in burning s/w. My friend is quite new to burning, and he deosn't have any problems w/ XP's burning program. Hope this helps.

I use Clone CD to copy cd's, and Nero to burn.

Yeah, dma is on. I wish i could get easy cd to work though. Oh well. Does anybody know what it costs to buy it??

Thanks

clone and nero... I hate that MS put in native burning. Tho it will work, just wont have all the advanced tools.

Too much for what it does.

is it ok to install clonecd after having nero already installed? i want to keep nero as default burner but just use cloneCD for 'difficult' cd's...

Check Roxio's site.....I have an AOpen 24X10X40 that Roxio does not support yet. If the burner is supported, try the 5.02b patch(it works great, but take two is not supported). If the burner is not supported, stick with Nero 5.5.5.1 and XP patches
