Here's where I'm looking...please let me know if I'm at the right place.
Device Mngr/CD-Rom/Atapi-CD-Rom Drive 52Max/Properties/General..Settings..Driver.
The same goes for HP-CD Writer+8200a


mikep...Did the scanreg/fix. On my machine the cd command entered at the c:\ prompt produced "Invalid Directory" but scanreg/fix ran OK straight from c:\ Different machine I guess.

I also tried your suggestion about doing an image and by the time the image was successfully sent to the hard drive from the CD I was getting excited. Then as soon as the process to burn the image to a CD started
everything stopped and a couple of attempts brought forth the following....


Recording Phase
Errors Reported by Output Device
Check for faulty or disconnected cables between your computer and your CD writer

I/O error

On another try...Command Error
Invalid field in CDB

Thanks to both for your patience...Ken

Just one other thing......check your docs for the cdr to see if there is a DMA jumper block, my Aopen has a jumper on the back of the drive that defaults to NO DMA, once removed UDMA then works....

Cheers,
Mal
