    Can you burn the files to cd using your buring software?

    Thanks for the response. Yes, I can burn cd on this drive ( the drive is a Buslink DBW-1647 , CD/DVD+WR+R drive and is set up as a slave) Are there some settings or something I need to do to my system to get this to save docs?
    Jim :confused:
