Hi, plz help if you can. I'm SO confused

I've never had this problem before, now all of a sudden I can't burn music onto a CD, I'm using Windows Media Player. It'll Rip the music fine, now when I put in a blank CD to copy onto a CD and select Burn its saying "Connect a burner and restart the Player". What?! It is a burner, internally, right? So how the world do I connect one. It was working fine before, now this all of sudden. I haven't changed any settings, at least not that I know of. So I closed out, and restarted my computer, thinking that would do something, but it gave the same message. I tried several different CDs, just in case I'd used them and didn't know it-- Still the same message. What can I do? If anything?

Monique, only thing that I can suggest, is to try system restore to a date that you know for certain your burner was working correctly. Good luck and I hope it works for you.

Monique,

I have no idea what is wrong with your system - I am curious as to whether you can still -read- CDs with Media Player, with your internal drive.

For the (unlikely) chance that this problem is specific to media player, you might try downloading another program to burn CDs. I would google "freeware cd burner", someone else might have a particular program they'd like to recommend.

sometimes settings get gliched.
Try changing the settings to something other than what they should be. And then resetting them to their proper values.

open my computer

right click c drive

tools

error check

good luck

hope yer burner did not die
