same problem here. i uninstalled the portion of sonic that
allows direct writing to the burner. sonic dla or
something like that. forget what it was and don't want to
remember.it lets the burner behave as a hard drive.roxio
also wants to do the same thing and win xp also and seeing
as win xp native burning feature is roxio, guess who wins?
good luck.
