windows media player 11 burning

[Guest richardunmpitt]

I am having the following problem when I try to burn a cd.

I drag my play list to the burn cd window pane.

When I click the burn cd button I get a message that says, "Please insert a

blank disc in CD Drive (E:). Once Windows Media Player detects the new disc,

it will automatically start burning."

But I already have a blank disc in the E drive.

Then the CD E drive tray opens up, I close it and then the window for the E

drive opens up, blank.

 

I think that the media player is not recognizing that there is a blank cd

the E drive.

 

If anyone has had this problem or any suggestions on fixing it please let me

know.

Thanks.

I am sorry that I do not recall the details, but I had the same problem,

and it turned out that another program had the drive with the blank CD "in

use". I hope that helps even though it is so vague. I am not sure but I

think it was RealPlayer. I think it was only visible the system tray.

Good luck with it.
