WinXP Prompt "Cannot access function incorrect" How to solve

Problem Description:

Today, in the light drive to copy the contents of the disc to the computer, suddenly prompted data errors and can not be copied, after the CD-ROM drive will not open, double-click the CD drive letter always prompts: Unable to access G: the function is incorrect.

First reason:

The burner hardware is not faulty and some of the system settings are out of order.

The first workaround:

1, open the "Run" dialog box, enter: services.msc, click OK to open the "Services" dialog box, in the "Service (local)" list to find "IMAPI cd-burning COM Service" (the following figure).

2, let's take a look at the description of this service: "Manage CD recordings with image mastering Applications Programming Interface (IMAPI)." If this service is stopped, the computer will not be able to record CDs. If the service is deactivated, any services that depend on it will not start.

3, it seems that the problem is really here, double-click IMAPI cd-burning COM service to open its Properties dialog box, change the startup type to Automatic. (pictured below)

4, OK, to solve this problem. You can also reboot the system to save the settings, and then right-click in the resource manager when you reboot, and the CD drive item appears in the "Send To" menu.

5, at this time and then put the CD into the CD-ROM drive found again can read the disk.

Second reason:

After the system is installed with Nero Express, the CD recording feature is shielded from the resulting.

The second workaround:

1, under the system to open "run", input services.msc, determine the pop-up after a "Service" Settings window, find IMAPI cd-burning COM Services Project, double-click the project, the start type from disabled to Automatic, determine the restart system.

2, open "My Computer", select the drive properties of the burner, in the Burning tab, "This device to start CD recording" Before the Tick, and then put the blank disc, you can normally display.

The third solution:

1, switch to another account to enter (note that the switch is not logoff, if no other account please go to the Control Panel-with the account to create one).

2, from another account to open the disc after entering, there is no "function is not correct" tips, and can view the disc used and the remaining space.

3, and then cut the account to you have an optical drive error prompts the account, open the disc there is no "function is not correct" hint, restart after all the fix.

The fourth solution:

Uninstall the optical drive in Device Manager, then add new hardware to the control Panel, reboot, and, if it works, a hardware-driven problem.
