D drive is not accessible??

[Guest]

I am trying to copy pictures to a CD-R and when I go to open the driveit
under "my computer" a window pops up that says drive is not
accessible-incorrect function. I've tested other CD's with photos and music
and they work. Does anyone know what this means?

Thanks!!

Weird..

I'm having the same problem, suddenly.

BTW - did you, by any chance, just update from MS Update?

 

[Guest]

No, I haven't-should I?

It's the first time I have attempted to copy pictures to disc on my new
laptop?? I have never had this happen before...

In My Computer, right click on your CD-RW drive and select
Properties from the menu.
On the Recording tab, make sure there's a check mark in the box
next to "Enable CD recording on this drive".

Since you didn't state what recording software in installed on
your computer, I'll pass this article along just in case it
applies to your situation:

"Incorrect function" error message when you access the CD-ROM
drive, the DVD-ROM drive, or the CD-RW drive

My CDVD-ROM (D:\) doesn't show in device manager, and I can't open the
library for the device, althouigh it still shows it (ASUS E414) as a
component.

Any ideas?

The device is installed cortrectly, works fine. I can boot into Repair Console
from the device - and use it just fine. But when Windows gets to the "Starting
Windows" screen, before "Loading your personal settings", the little green
"drive-active" light blinks off and it's gone.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated...

I'm going to have to pass on this one because I've never seen
what you're describing. Any suggestions I could give would be
based on a guess, and probably not a very good guess.

You might want to post your question as a new thread in this
newsgroup as well as the Windows XP hardware newsgroup.

Good luck

device is a cd burner. its weird. i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling;
no luck. ideas?
