If there was no changes on your system before this happened, perhaps it's time to get a new one. It's not that expensive these days!

Is the driver for your drive loaded properly? Do you have an error inside the device manager? Try powering off your computer, and opening the chasis (if you don't know what ur doing, find someone who does). See if all IDE and power connections are properly in place. Have you added any drives? If so, you probably need to adjust jumpers.

Also, I doubt you need a whole new system just to replace/troubleshoot a single peripheral not working. The solution is usually the most obvious. Remember to have patience, as you will be rewarded for it.

Also, are you using XP? 2K? 9x? please specify.

Before you go routing through cables, two simple questions - whats your music source and what type are these music files?

What do the error messages say?

It sounds like you got a computer problem.

Windows XP and there MP3 files i download off of Lime Wire and torennt spy.com

couldi be burning on the wrong speed???

**Auggie2k** · October 4th, 2005, 03:03 PM

Set the burning speed at a lower rate that MAX, about 8X, or 4X.

Are you sure the files play and are accessible?

Are they on a removable hard drive that may be off but the files indexed?

Is the Windows XP Recording enabled in the CD Drive properties?

okay, we'll try this again..

WHAT DOES THE ERROR MESSAGE SAY?

**RoyceDa59** · October 4th, 2005, 03:25 PM

"Is the Windows XP Recording enabled in the CD Drive properties?"

where do i go to see that????

yea im listening to music right now on itunes

**Auggie2k** · October 4th, 2005, 03:27 PM

My computer > X drive properties (where X is your current CD burner) > Recording

What is the error message you get when this happens? If you tell us it might solve this problem!
