Cd rom:/ Not accessible incorrect function

glitglit

Hello,

Happy new year. I seem to be having a problem with copying files to the cd rom drive. When I try, i get the message Cd rom:/ Not accessible incorrect function.
I not sure whats wrong with it because i am able to put in a cd and play music etc.
I do not have any software such as roxie or easy creator. Because i know that this software can have the same problems that ive mentioned.
Thanking you in advance

Kind regards

Is this a CD-RW drive? (You can't copy to a CD-ROM drive)

If so, right-click on the CD drive - Properties - Recording tab and make sure 'Enable CD Recording on this drive' is ticked.

What operating system are you using?

Not all will allow writing to the disk and you need 3rd party software.

Thanks for the reply guys. I am using Windows Xp. I enabled the cd recording and i was able to copy pictures and save them onto cd. Lets hope video to DVD works as well.

I am looking to do a backup of my own personal files every two months. Whats the best way to do this automatically? i also want to select the files i want to backup.

Thanks
