I have a system running Win ME. I want to upgrade at least to XP. I have two CD drives, a 'normal' one and a burner. When I try to Backup prior to upgrading, neither drive recognizes there is a CDR-W in it. In the burner's 'Settings' window, I have made sure 'Disconnect' is left unchecked, if that makes a difference. Also, other CDs work, such as music CDs, previously burned CDs, and commercial game CDs (this is a used system, and I have not personally burned anything yet). And, I know the CDR-Ws are good, becasue I have tested them in a friend's Vista laptop. Any response is appreciated.
Also in regards to Win98, in there anything that can be done for a corrupted registry?
