problems copying files to CD

[Guest]

When I try and copy files or folders to a cd, it says that i need to insert a disc. But there is a disc in the drive, how can I burn a data cd? Is there any software that I can install to do this? I had an external burner on my old computer and it came with a program that I could use to make cds. With my laptop all I have is "SonicStage" which only makes music cds.
Please help!!

Hi,

Open Windows Explorer, right-click the CD drive and select properties. Go to
the recording tab and make sure that the line to enable recording on this
drive is checked.
