Disable CD Recording

[Guido]

Hi all,

There's some way to prevent Notebook user to record their
own CD using Windows XP Pro SP1 ?? We want to disable
thise feature in order to prevent someone copy files and
docs from the network ...

Any suggestion ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi all
You can disable the cd burning capabality in win xpy by
tweaking registry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
\Policies\Explorer]
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
\Policies\Explorer]
Look for the value NoCDBurning (Dword)
Right click on it and choose modify and put 1 instead of 0
Then the cd burning function of winxp will be disable
