using Xp with SP2, on a Dell Dimension 4550, suddenly I can't burn using the
ordinary "send to" the CD Rom drive or the DVD drive I also have. Nothing
happens even though the files are there in the temp folder. But I can start
Nero and I can burn fine. Both devices indicate they are working properly,
but it states they HAVE NO MEDIA in them!
Any ideas? Thanks.

This is an issue with Nero's drag and drop application, I also have the same
problem, I disabled Nero's drag and drop in favor of xp's drag and drop.
to me it's a personal choice, to each his own.

Nero InCD is different to XP's: With InCD you need to format the RW disk
first. I have not used R once disks with InCD nor Roxio DirectCD as these
programs are designed to replace existing files or deleting files almost
like hard/floppy disk. I haven't used XP's drag to disk as I have better
control with Nero or Roxio software.

Thanks for the message. I have nero 7 on my computer and don't see how I can
disable nero's drag and drop.

If the Drag and Drop feature is what the other are assuming is InCD,
uninstall InCD from the Add/Remove Programs
