Hi
I have tried to post this a few time recently and still
have not found a solution over the last 2 months! So
please bear with me to read what I have tried so far.
I am running XP Home and recently I have lost my
recording tab under properties for my CD-RW drive so I
cannot drag and drop into the drive as I could a couple
of months ago or so.
I need to get at it to check that enable CD recording is
checked.
I have checked the key in the registry and set drive type
to 2 (as it was anyway) and this has made no difference.
I have also checked that IMAPI cd burning is running in
services.
I have also checked for a new driver (drive Toshiba SD-
R5112) but Toshiba say that it is natively supported by
the driver that comes with XP (ie the one im using).
The drive burns fine with specialist software but this is
inconvenient as it so much slower.
On someone's advice I have also tried using ISOrecorder
to see if that would 'kick-start' XP into recognising the
drive as recordable but it didnt recognise a recordable
drive either. Presumably because it uses XP to actually
do the recording.
If anyone could suggest anyway I might get the recording
tab back I would be really grateful as I really think Ive
tried everything now.
Cheers.
