unable to burn Cds

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsme.general (More info?)

Adaptec easy cd creator 4 will not allow me to burn Cd's.
It just stops and says - No cd recording device detected.
and I cant get past that point.

Hello Mike Easy CD 4 has never worked on my PC and I
have made no changes to it whatsoever. That is why I have
had to convert my music from wma to wav so I can burn
music from my files to a Cd using Nero. I have now given
up on MP and will now use Nero to do this from now on.
Jack Read has similar problems with protected music and
unprotects all new recordings by removing the tick in
Personal Rights Management box. I have to unprotect the
music before I can convert to wav. Thats been my
problem. Josie

And Nero burns .wma files. Prior to Nero 6x - I believe - it required the
WMA plugin: http://www.nero.com/en/wma-plugin.php but in Nero 6x not even
the plugin is required.
