Win XP Home, clean install, partitioned hard drive. I backup to an external
firewall drive.

Problem

XP set up all of the files on my D:\ drive as ready to be written to CD .
This shows up on my CD drive and as an Icon in the tray. I have removed both
Nero and Roxio with the problem remaining. If I delete the so called
temporary files on the CD drive it in fact deletes them from the hard drive.
These are mostly photo and music files and I do have them safely backed up.
I would like to disable if possible, the CD writing function of XP . I have
two other programs to write to CD
 
Found what Ii was looking for in the CD drive properties. disabled the
windows recording function, reinstalled the third party software and all ok
