Can anyone tell me how I can copy a CD in Windows XP
Professional? Is there a built in utility or must I
purchase separate software?
Thanks in advance.

Built-in. Open Windows Media Player. Note the COPY CD choice at the
left. And see the HELP files.

You will need third party software to do a direct copy of a CD.

Separate Software I'm afraid. Either as part of one of the general CD
Burning packages (Nero or Easy CD Creator for example), or there is
CloneCD for copying and nothing else

CloneCD is no longer produced, supported, or has an official download
site. That's a shame too.

You could, however, copy the contents of a CD to your hard disk and then
copy it to another CD.
