Guest jaj726 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I would like to know if there is a way to copy a cd without using recordnow or sonic? I have Windows XP and only have one CD-ROM.
Guest R. McCarty Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Re: Coping a cd? A program that will read the contents of the drive and convert it to a .ISO module. Once in that format it can be re-expanded/written to a blank disk. Several programs can do this, such as IsoBuster or ImgBurn. http://www.imgburn.com/ "jaj726" <jaj726@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:34167035-C15B-4A26-8C29-DFF80699605D@microsoft.com... >I would like to know if there is a way to copy a cd without using recordnow > or sonic?

I'm sure there are many other options as many people only have one CD in their PC. -- http://www.bootdisk.com/

I have Windows XP and only have one CD-ROM. What kind of CD and where to, (another CD or HDD as a disk image?) If you just want data from the CD, you can just copy the files to the HDD, then copy them back to the disk. For the most part there is no practical difference between a creating a disk iso and copying a disk as described above. If it's a music CD, then that won't work. You would need to rip the files in wav or mp3 format, then create an audio disc with your software. Why can't you use Sonic? Most programs will function the same way. If you have one CDRW drive they make a temp copy of the disk, then prompt you to put in the blank CD, then write the CD. If you want a clearer answer, post exactly what you want to do and what you have to do it with.

If you're trying to make copies of bootable CDs, this is one of the only ways to do it. Simply copying files will not make the copy bootable. HTH -pk
