Hello people.......
I am having problems burning CD/DVD using my rom. Actually when I insert a blank disc, my CD/DVD drive does not detect whether there is any free space.
Even when i enter a written DVD it shows space occupied but not free space. My PC is of HCL, pentium D and XP. Plese help me !!!!!

You can't burn a disc with a Read Only Memory optical drive.

You need a recordable drive to burn discs.

A disc (non-RW) that has been burned and finalized, won't show any free space on it.

Having the education I do, my intuition is curious as to why Grumpy uses the name his wife gave him. :o I mean my wife sometimes lovingly calls me Flathead (which I often mistake for Fathead), but...I am getting a little thin on the top at 54.

Same here, everyday since moving to japan in 1998, everyone call me Keiki and I went by that name for years and even change my name into Keiki
