Combo drive RW no record tab

[Bruce Watson]

I am reposting this... need help!

I have added a LG combo drive GSA 4040B to e: and a LG CD\DVD R drive to f:
Moviemaker does not allow me to copy to drive!

Have read the help and do not have a recording tab!
I have unloaded and loaded the drives with and without rebooting and
phisically removing and reinstalling one at a time.

I did have a HP CD -RW dive before in the computer could this be the problem
I am out of ideas!

How do I get a recording tab?

More background
"Open My Computer>CD-ROM Drive in question, right click Properties>Recording
Enable CD Recording on the drive."

Microsoft article 316529 taked about the regedit - checked and it is fine!
combo r/w is 2 and combo r is 3

The DVD/CD R/W is in e drive and a DVD/CD R is F drive.

The icon in my computer for the f drive is correct the e drive shows a CD
rom untill a DVD r/W is put in and it changes to the DVD icon

Drivers in use: both optical drives have the same drivers
c:\wiondows\system 32\Drivers\cdrom.sys
" \imapi.sys
\redbook.sys
c:\windows\system 32\storp.dll
Let me know what you think!

Do you have the RecordNow (DLA) software installed? If yes then you should not enable that setting.

I just opened Movie Maker and found this in help:
Troubleshooting saving a movie to a recordable CD
This section covers the following issues when saving a movie to a CD-R or CD-RW.

a.. Recordable CD drive not detected. Explains the issue and provides suggestions for resolving the issue where a recordable or rewriteable CD drive is not detected.
b.. Recordable CD drive not enabled for recording CDs. Explains the issue when the recordable CD drive is not enabled for recording CDs.
c.. Permission denied for recording CDs. Explains the issue where the current Group Policy settings prevent recording CDs.
d.. No recordable CD. Explains the issue when a recordable or rewriteable CD is not inserted in the recordable CD drive.
e.. CD is not recordable or rewriteable. Explains the issue when your movie cannot be saved to a CD because the disc is not recordable or rewriteable.
