I've tried this 2/3 times but just keep getting a 'grating' noise when I try to play the CD back. Where am I going wrong?

First make sure the tracks are in the right format. If you want to play them on a cd player then they need to be in wav format unless your cd player can play mp3's. If they are in wav format all you need to do is highlight the songs by right clicking and then choose the burn to cd function. If they are mp3 files then you need to convert them to wav using a program called uswitch which you can find by doing a google search.

'Grating' noise? Disc inserted properly?
Will music disc play in 'd' drive?

Okay both drives play music from same cd?
(if not sounds like toasted drive 'd')

Otherwise the application(software) you are using
not correct, or cd has software preventing your
copying or combo of both.

What type files you looking for/from???

This is called the extension. A 'normal' cd would be name.cda
(you may need to change browser setting to display extensions- good to start educating yourself about PCs)

Keep me posted(email) and good luck

If you havent got the software that came with the drive you can use realplayer or another media player with the burn facility.

Make sure you specify whether its data or music that you are buring as they maybe incompatible with the drive you are tryong to play the CD back in.

make sure there isn't a sticker or some form of label on the CD - I had this happen the other day at work (IT Helpdesk) we removed the drive and then realised it was becasue there was a sticky label on the disk and it was rubbing on the laser or the CD drive.

Roxio or other software will help you copy the tracks correctly.

Now if you're already using a program like that, then it might be your drive.

There should be an option in Windows media player to burn to cd, failing that you would need nero or another burning rom.

Use nero or itunes, and specify if you want an audio disk or if you want a data disk (for mp3 files.)

For more details on the procedure, check the help files of whichever application you care to use.
