E: drive not accessible

[Guest]

I run XP pro an my laptop, and use an external Sony DVD burner on the E:
drive to back up data. I've been doing that weekly, but today I get the error
message
E:\ is not accessible. Incorrect function.
The burner is hooked up to a ASB port, and I never had that issue. Any ideas
out there why that is and how to fix it?

Thank you.
