    Does anyone know hot to enable cd-recording on more than 1 drive. When i enable it on 1 drive it disables it from the other and vice versa. Any way around this. We have 2 drives we want to use for burning in Windows without a third party app.

    Thanks

    Nero 7 supports burning on 2 drives simultaneously - the Windows native burning software does not.

    I did not mean at the same time but to do it without having to go into the drive properties and click the enable cd recording button every time i wanted to use the other drive.
    Thanks for you input.

    Windows burning software is very basic - it seems to be one drive or the other, not both. That's how it pans out on my computer.

    I don't think the Windows software (never used it) gives you the opportunity to select a drive when used - it defaults to whichever drive is selected.

    The answer is to use third party burning software.
