Cannot complete the CD writing wizard

[Konrad Kucharski]

For a long time I have been able to download PDF files
from the internet to CD burning drive E. One day it
stopped working. I now have PDF files from the
net "waiting to be copied to CD" but when I choose to
copy to CD the CD writing wizard gives me the
error "cannot cmplete the CD writing wizard". I've gone
through the proceedure detailed in microsoft support.
i.e. switching ervice from manual to automatic in IMAPI
CD-Burning COM Service.

I also have Nero CDburning program. For longer than this
problem has been occuring I have'nt been able to use is.
(doesnt recognise a recordable device?!?!?!?!) I dont
know if this is relevant or not. Please help if you have
had the same problems as I have..

Regards.. Konrad Kucharski

Hi Konrad,

Please try deleting all the temporary files that are waiting to be copied to
CD, then disable/reenable CD recording:

1. open "My Computer"
2. right click->Properties on the CD recording drive
3. click on "Recording" tab
4. uncheck "Enable CD recording on this drive"
5. click "Apply"
6. check "Enable CD recording on this drive"
7. click "Apply", then "OK"

Then, try recopy your PDF and please let us know if you're still
experiencing this problem. Thanks!
