HI
I've just reinstalled windows xp pro. Now when I insert a blank cd the autoplay dialogue pops up asking me would i like to create a disk with nero. What I was wondering was how do I activate windows own inbuilt cd recording software? Before i reinstalled xp when I inserted a blank cd, I used to get the option of using xp's recording software. Now when i try to open my cdrw drive with a blank cd in it, it's says please insert a cd ! So it obviously doesn't recongise the fact that there is a blank cd in the drive like it used to.
Thanks Tel

Make sure the 'Enable recording' button under the Recording tab (CD drive-Properties) is checked.
OP
there doesn't seem to be an enable cd recording tab under the cdrw properties
check your cd-rw, it may have a problem or windows is not detecting it's a cd-rw
did u install nero's "in-cd"?
Windows Xp just ask if you want to "open" the cd - which is how the built in software works.
right click on the burner drive - go to properties / Autoplay / and choose what "content" so Blank CD - then choose
"Open writable cd folder"
and TADA!
