Does anyone know if Nero is able to convert sounds from records, tapes etc. so they can be burned onto a CD. I know that Adeptec would convert music from a tape player to the computer and then burn them into a CD. Any...

Anyone successfully gotten the new Dual Layer SATA Plextor PX-716SA to work with Roxio Easy Media Creator 7? I had a PX-712SA in there before this one and it worked fine. The software does not seem to see or support this drive yet. Anyone else having this same issue? BTW, it works fine with...

Yesterday, my wife's PC didn't start: you see all the usual BIOS stuff at the start, but no operating system loads from hard disc. I noticed hard disk light was on, but no activity from optical drives. So I unplugged the LG CD rewriter, and the PC boots okay. Now this was on second IDE controller,...

I'm looking to purchase some high quality DVD+Rs for my new Plextor 708. I want the best archival quality I can get, and of course, I'd like them to burn at 8x since the Plextor can do that. I'm under an impression that Mitsui is very well thought of, but don't find them available. Where can one...

I currently have a plextor 12/10/16 drive on one of our computers (3 yrs and still works great). I came across a message saying there were problems with the 48x,52x write of the newer plextors and I wanted to know what people here would recommend. Thanks, Chris

My new DVD player will play both MP3'& WMA files & I was just wondering if any of the portable Walkman style CD players can also play WMA files? -- Thanks in advance Remove the XXX to reply

My wife and I both have automobiles that have new MP3 stereos in them. In the past, we'd burn our favorite MP3s (with Roxio) onto a CD-R or RW and they would play without problems in our stereos. Recently, after changing our CD burning drive to a Sony DRU-700A, most if not all of our MP3s now skip...

I pressed the button tons of times, but it still refuses to come out! I tried restarting my computer but it still doesn't work... Wat can i do to make it come out??

Does a cdr have an area which states true or false whether the disc is blank? Or how exactly is the cdr determined as blank? The drive can't search the whole disc for a TOC.

I bought a Liteon external DVD burner at office Max a little over a year I notice that they are again stocking a LiteOn external, after carrying only an HP (which reviews were not too complimentary about) for most of the last year. Has LiteOn quality gotten better, stayed the same or gotten worse?...

Hi This program seems to be a step backwards from Nero 5.5. it does not do anything remotely useful with DVD's without buying extra plug-ins. The rest of it was no improvement whatsoever on 5.5.When I uninstalled it in disgust it took with it some vital files that made some of my other software...

Can Nero 5.5 and 6 co exist at the same time? I want to get 6 but don't want to get rid of 5.5 until I am sure 6 is working properly.

Can anyone tell me which NG I could go to for help using Photo2VCD?? I have a problem with the image being too large when shown on a TV. TIA, Willy.

Hi, If anyone has an ARTEC WSM-52X CDRW drive that has firmware greater than 1.0A, like 1.25 or greater, could I get a copy of it? Thanks

Using DVD decryptor, I ripped a dvd to my hard drive. When I go to burn the image, DVD Decrypt gives me an I/O error. I have not a clue what to do. I am using winxp sp1 with a liteon sohw 812s drive (its an internal drive inside an external casing hooked up via USB 2.0). I am at a total...

Hello! I am new to this group, and new to the whole arena of CD-recording. I am hoping that someone much more experienced than I might help me out. Purchasing a CD-recorder (such as "CopyWrite Live" or "Marantz CDR300") is in the very new future. HOWEVER, what I am actually looking for is a...

I set up a new computer, new mobo, processor,memory, old cdrom, old HD. sometimes the cdrom is recognized by bios, the cdrom led activates and the tray eject works. When I reboot or restart, the bios doesn't recognize the cdrom, no led, no eject working. If I shut down computer and disconnect...

Hi, I have an interesting story :) I got HP Pavilion with XP home on it and a Toshiba DVD+R burner and I wrote 5 DVDs with digital pictures. Well, all of them I could write just fine but only one I can read on the laptop .
