    I can`t burn off any audio cds in windows media player 9 because it can`t detect any devices up until recently all was fine. I am using a sony dw-u14a dvd rw and have installed all the latest drivers. This drive is detected else where on the computer, just not in the copy to cd option of the programme. Has anyone got any ideas?

    looks like you may have to reinstall media player give that a shot but would it not be easier to use an other programe that better for copying.

    Yeah I've reinstalled media player, still won't work. Which other program will burn WMA files to cd as Audio?

    Right, downloaded nero, apparently it's illegal to convert WMA (Windows Media Audio) files into CD audio. It says it will, but won't! AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH I hate computers, its doing my head in, my space bar don't work, so I have to cut and paste all the spaces in. Why is it illegal to convert WMA's, Microsofts is doing it?
