Can you drag and drop the same file within explorer?

Unless you have third party software - InCD, Direct CD or DLA (in which
case reinstall that):

See if the CD burning service is running - go to Control Panel, Admin
tools - Services, look for IMAPI CD burning. If it is not 'Started',
double click it, set Startup type to Automatic, and Apply - then click
Start. Check also in My Computer, r-click the Drive icon, Properties
and on the Recording page ensure that 'Enabled' is checked
