Q , thanks for your help!
You are right about Nero.
My version of Nero was 5.5 so it was outdated.
I downloaded updates from the Nero web site and the burner is working with

Still confused why the XP built in burning does not work.
BTW do the CD Recorder properties displayed by right clicking on CDRW
drive in My computer conflict with Nero ?
TIA
Dave
