Hello:
I have Roxio Easy CD creator 5.2 Basic on my old Dell Laptop. I have not used the CD-RW drive in quite some time and since my last use upgraded to Service Pack 2 of Win XP. I tried using the drive to backup music on itunes, however it did not work. I could not burn a CD. I then tried playing a music CD, however this did not work. I then uninstalled and reinstalled the drive software, however i received a message saying that Roxio Easy CD Creator 5.2 Basic was not compatible with Service Pack 2. What can I do now? I just want to use this drive to backup my itunes (music) library. Is it possible to download a software update from Roxio? I looked on their site, but could not find anything. How about downloading another type of software to be used with this CD-RW drive? I am looking for the cheapest alternative because of all of the recent holiday bills (yuk!!!). I am not all that computer literate so any help (detailed if possible) would be much appreciated. Thanks
 
I had the exact same problem with SP1, never mind SP2.
If you want free burning software, I personally recommend Deep Burner. Works well for me when I'm not using Nero, which is my first choice.

Thanks for the quick response.....So downloading Deep Burner (which is free) will allow me to burn my music onto a CD-RW like Roxio will? Also, can I back up data files with this software such as MS Word? Thanks
