for some reason my cd-r/rw drive won't burn cds using the
in-built software in xp. it will attempt to write on a cd-
r but always has errors, but won't even try on a cd-rw and
says they're full. any suggestions?

Rob, you can try free Burner Software. DeepBurner is very good.
http://www.deepburner.com/ You can also check Control
Panel>AdminTools>Services>IMAPI CD
Burning Service and make sure it's started and set on Automatic

The inbuilt burning is anyway very limited, and is not suited to CD-RW
in the usual way of thinking of them. And there are some drives it just
will not work with at all. Get something else: Sony used to have
provision for RecordNow as a free tool for their drives. See more at
