brentb Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I have Express Burn 4.05 and Windows XP Pro. I get this error: "The Selected drive does not exist" after attempting to burn an Audio CD from WAV files. Prior to getting that error, I am not able to designate which drive is my writing drive. After the program shows Scanning for available drives; I try to expand the drop down for options - it just flashes with nothing in it. When clicking on Properties for the drive in My Computer, it is recognized as a CDR-RW drive with recording capabilities. I also get prompted for an ISO image prior to burning. I'm not completely clear what that is (album data and art?), but I believe I read that is only applicable to the upgrade version. What can I do to get around this error and use the software as it is intended? Thank you in advance. So far I really like the Switch and Wavepad software, and the Express Burn seems to be a good thing, once I get past this issue. Thanks again.

Guest nchgb Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Are you certain that you have a CD/DVD burner installed and functional in your computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brentb Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 Are you certain that you have a CD/DVD burner installed and functional in your computer? Thanks for the post NCHGB. I have the same CDR-RW drive in the same computer that I had when it worked successfully with a Roxio program. As I noted in my initial post, when I click on 'My Computer' on my desktop, and then go into 'Properties' for that drive, under the 'Recording' tab, everything looks good and recording is enabled. If I can't get it to be recognized and burn a disk with this software, how else could I test it to see if it is functional? The last computer science class that I took was in 1984. I believe Pascal was the language of the time. Thanks for your help and patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control panel says its working properly, and Media Player can write to it. Steinberg 'Clean' can find it and write to it, but its a pain coming out of Wavepad into Steinberg just to burn the CD. Maybe I should have tested this before buying Express Burn, but sinse I had an evaluation copy that timed out just before I changed the drive, it wouldn't let me. Anyway, if anyone has an answer, I'd be pleased to hear from them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
