I just upgraded my PC from Windows Me to XP and now my CD-
R/RW won't work.
Do I have to buy a new CD-R/RW? or New software?
Easy CD Creator 4 came with my computer.
I have looked for a fix or update for this version, but so
far no luck.
Please help me.
Thank you

EZCD 4 is not compatible. Check www.roxio.com for an update
to the latest 5.x version which has XP patches or upgrade to
version 6

Hello
Your version of Easy Cd Creator will not work on XP ok
you will need version 5, you must research before upgrading and
a good way to make sure that all your devices will work with the
new OS
Also for your cdrom to work, view the link below

Better yet, go to www.nero.com and buy Nero. EZCD Creator 6 has some
significant bugs.

Hi,

If you have used the CD/RW for more than 3 years, you
better buy a new one that bundled with the Nero 5 burning
rom. I bought a Ricoh CD/RW (48X) 16 months ago and it
works great with my XP Pro. It only took around 5 minutes
or less to burn an audio CD of 700MB using Nero5.
CD/RW now is cheap, around $40.- but if you buy Nero 5
alone, it costs around $29.90

Wait...... did you try booting from the cd and after you specify your RID
controler perform an inplace upgrade??? you might just save your previous
intallation of the OS
