Yup, I agree with you, and Jim.. Without a burning app it won't crank on all
8's or 6's or 4's or even a 2 stroke for that matter, ha... j;-j "Crunk" wrote: sorry not sure what you mean...kinda comp. dumb ha "Jaymon" wrote: You need a burning app, don't see one in your list..?

That is the kind of program that I meant... I am not certain what the significance of "no rewriteable drive" is as a DVD-RAM isn't rewriteble (AFIK). My inclination is that you have a hardware issue with the drive. Don't mention that XP says that the drive is working properly. All that means is that the electronics in the drive and in the computer can communicate. The drive hardware may still be bad even after receiving such a message. What does the manufacturer's diagsnostics say about the drive? Jim "Jim" wrote: "Crunk" wrote in message ... I have a Toshiba Satellite that came with a Mat****a (pioneer) dvd-ram player/burner.

Crunk,
You might just try unistalling the Windvd Creator app. then reinstall it again.. Might even try contacting their customer support.. http://www.intervideo.com/jsp/Support.jsp?mode=Customer Might try uninstalling the drive in device manager, reboot and let XP find it again.. Investigate these links they may be relevant.. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320553/EN-US/ http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx?kbid=314096 http://support.microsoft.com/default...en-us%3b316529 http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx?kbid=314096 http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;283588 http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;826510 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-RAM Cheers.. j;-j "Crunk" wrote: sorry not sure what you mean...kinda comp. dumb ha "Jaymon" wrote: You need a burning app, don't see one in your list..?
