Hi Everybody!
New to DVD copy/burning, I see other packet writing software inteferes with a user's operating system, and EB' doesn't work for some drives?
I have a Sony VAIO (I know, you don't have to say it) with a PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-K12D [CD-ROM drive] mounted on a Windows XP Home platform. Is my drive supported by EB'?
Would anyone here also have such an OS and would know if there are any conflicts with having the following applications installed, ref. packet writing issues when InCD is installed?

Supposedly the "manual and help" was to have been downloaded, but all I find is the help application and a search for the word "manual" in help revealed nothing but the link back to the download page. Is there no actual manual or am I just not finding it?
'Lastly', if anyone knows about Sony OS's, is there anything I need to know about purchasing CD-RW's and/or DVD-RW discs? I have yet to be able to successfully burn anything with the Memorex CD-RW disc's I purchased and I don't recall or have on hand any of the DVD discs to say what they are. I bought an external DVD rewriter (an LG Super Multi DVD Rewriter) after being unable to burn anything on my Pioneer DVD-RW drive thinking I needed it as Sony proprietary software or the DVD-RW drive seems to be restricting me from copying DVD's to my HD and/or to another writer. And the only time I suceeded in burning anything was when I used the external rewriter to play and the internal drive to record, but the DVD ejected midway through recording (likely just due to my AV and ignorance about realtime scanning?).
I know with so many questions that this's a lot to ask, so kudos for anyone with both the expertise, time and kindness afforded in (hopefully) replying.
Interestingly, I registered on the forum last night and replied to a string's last post with a brief question (related to that string), but now can't find it here in the EB' posts. And yes, I was logged in.
