Then click on the recording tab and half way down there is a tick box, which says allow cd recording. Make sure that the box is ticked.<BR /><BR />If this doesn't work then think about using a different program for copying ie Real Player.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 04 Jul 2004 10:35:16 GMT https://community.sony.se/t5/pcs-accessories/dvd-cd-writing-problem/m-p/58187#M127407 scubadiver 2004-07-04T10:35:16Z
