Taking you at your word...

"cdrom"

Compact Disc - Read Only Memory

If you have a CD-ROM drive - you cannot write to CDs.
If you have a CD-RW drive - you can read and write to CDs.
If you have a DVD-RW drive - you can read and write to CDs and DVDs.

But you have to have the right drive and the right media for said drive.

Now - you may not have meant to use the term "CD-ROM".
You may have a CD-RW or DVD-RW drive. If so, you could have a dirty drive
and/or defective drive...

G'Day Ronald,

Have you EVER been able to use nero with THIS drive?
