CD writing wizard defunked...

First it started only popping up AFTER I EJECTED the CD I was preparing to write on. Then it would pop up say can't complete and continue doing nicely...Well. I removed Nero, who someone else had put on and I knew with XP's I didnt need the extra one along with the Media Player too....Now, I can only use the media player. The wizard has totally vanishished....I want to burn data CD's to back up, lol I aam late doin it, should've known something would happen first. But hell I been in 2 car wrecks in 3 months and this last 1 a drunk driver brok my neck and needless to say ...I have been side tracked....LMAO..I've had my surgery & I am and will b fine, ty. But really wanna back up tonite....help anyone?

 

Hi juey, hope you recover quickly.

I can't seem to find anything like a burning "wizard" in XP, it just seems to be dragging files onto the drive in My Computer.

otherwise put "burn cd" into a Help and Support search and look through the knowledgebase articles.

Edit: Oh! Removing Nero could have corrupted your ASPI drivers. Post back if the article does not help.

 

I did a repair on XP and got the wizard back and wrking properly.....still no autoplay, but I havent gone in manually yet to that drive box...The repair also sent my media player back to i think it is 9 and i cant record data cd's anymore but believe if i upgrade the player that should wrk too.
The CD writing wizard is what I use most of the time for all my back up data cd's. Send everything to CD drive then click on the write these files to cd...looks like this....
