Simple Cd burner prog?

[Sundog]

I have Roxio CD Creator and CD Copy want to make a backup copy of an old and
well used 1996 Cd that I have. CD Copy seems set up to use a CD reader and
a CD burner on the same machine. It also has a Copy to HD facility that's
greyed out and that makes it useless.

I used CDEx to rip the tracks to the HD and then tried to use CD Creator to
burn the copy. It has a location CD Drive Properties that identifies my CD
burner correctly, but says "it's in use by "null"" and gives a message
"There are no supported CD trecorders on this system." I tried two
different blank CDs. Both these Roxio progs came with the burner, which
burns DVDs and CDs.

So, I am looking for a simple CD burner? Anyone know of one?

TIA

CD Extreme (Sony!) Sony's giving this away, making this the only truly
freeware CD-Burning application available. Additionally it has an extremely
friendly user interface and powerful features. DL it before they change
their mind

I had trouble getting CD Extreme to work on my machine (p4 w/XP). I
finally did get it up and running (yah) but I had to use an older
version (1.5 or something) with the newest prassi drivers.

Other alternatives are:
CD Burner XP Pro (good looking beta)

Burn 4 Free (on the weak side)

Burn At Once for iso's bin/cue (hard core)
http://www.burnatonce.com/

Raw CD Copy (no longer supported hard core)

DVD Decrypter for iso's (ripping and burning)

My thanks Dansheen for the info about the Sony prog and to Fran for the
extra info. I followed that link and set it up.

I had the tracks as wave files on my HD and tried to burn them. It spat out
a runtime error and crashed. Next I tried a CD copy and burn with a perfect
result. I love this prog and am just about to kick Roxio down the drain

I have a copy of DVD Decrypter - grat prog - and use it regularly for DVDs
but it needs an image file before burning and I had none in this case, so I
couldn't use it.

Thanks to all again.

This is truly the best NG on this planet.

Enjoy the week

Sd - wuffff!!!

Thanks for the info Fran and dansheen... but

Fran's link to the main files is broken, but dansheen's is ok, however
Fran's link to the other files is ok, so between you I got the lot.

2 problems -

The prog will not recognize my burner, which is strange as it's a late
Sony CRX300A,

Ihave some audio files sampled at 40k on my old computer, and it will
not recognise them as valid files because they were not sampled at 44k!

Anyone had this sort of problem and can hel, please?

Yeah, I ran into the same problem. Some MP3s that I download off usnet
were not stereo or at the 44k bitrate. What you do is resample them at
44k and (min) 96 bit with CDex -- http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/ --
then CDExtreme will like 'em!
