CD burning in Windows XP operating system

Window

It has long been known that win XP adds support for the burner, which means that no third-party software can complete the burn work directly in the WinXP, but there is no chance to test it. Just acquired a burner a few days ago, so I can't wait to test in WinXP. (Note: This use of the burner for Woodpecker dh1610,16x10x40x, and ASUS using the same IDE mouth, burner for from disk.) )

The correct completion of hardware installation, boot WinXP did not appear to find any new hardware prompts, or is too fast I did not see, anyway, after opening "My Computer" has found more than one CD-ROM icon. Open the Properties window for the optical drive, with one more "recording" option, where you can set parameters such as the location of the image file and the speed of the burn. For the location of the mirrored file is recommended to choose a larger disk space, because the WinXP will burn the file to do a mirror, some people may feel strange, to burn the file is not already on the hard disk, why do this mirror? But WinXP don't care so much, It operates entirely in accordance with its own will. And the burning speed of the choice also do not set too high, so as to avoid burning failure.

WinXP burning is very simple, you can drag and drop files directly into the CD drive, or through the file's right-click menu "Send" to the CD drive.

To complete the selection of files, open the optical drive you will find that the selected file is already in the CD drive, but its icon and the normal file icon is different, directly select the "Write these files to CD" To start burning work. The Burning wizard window pops up and prompts you to complete the burn operation.

After burning, you will be prompted if you want to burn another one, if you choose Yes, then you will burn another one and just the same disc.

When you start the test, you worry that WinXP will end the disc after the burn is finished, that is, you can't write the data again, so when you test it, you burn it with a CD-RW. But in later use found that WinXP did not end the disc, as long as the disc and write space, then you can continue to burn. When burning, a rough record of the time it burned, found that its burning speed is not very fast, burning a 600M CD-ROM is almost more than 10 minutes, and the same data to burn with Nero only about seven minutes.

Compared with Win2000, WinXP has a different place. That is, when you select a file and do not burn it, even if you quit the disc and go to the CD-ROM again, you find that the selected file is still in it, which actually means that WinXP uses the mirrored file.

An unexpected condition occurred while the data was being burned. When you select "Write these files to CD", the system is not reflected, the repeated clicks to the last occurrence of multiple warning windows:

The wizard was eventually written, but failed to write data. Said CD-RW has been damaged, no, this CD-RW can be 20 yuan Ah, really heartache. Write again, this time is normal, it is estimated that the start of the process is too much, affecting the writing of the data, so we recommend that you should not do other work when burning

The burn data is tested, then the erasure of the CD-RW is tested. You think you can do it like you deleted a file, but when you select a file to delete directly, a warning window appears and cannot be deleted. Only select "Remove this CD-RW" to erase the optical drive. A wizard window similar to writing will pop up at this point, but the first time you erase it, although the system prompts you to finish erasing it, the file is not deleted when you view the disc again. And from the right of the CD-ROM at this point in the menu select Erase, but the normal completion, it is estimated that this is only occasionally. The speed of erasure is generally similar to the rapid erasure in Nero.

Summarizing WinXP's burning operation, it actually writes the data in a multiple-section way, mirroring the data file to the hard disk every time it is burned, and the burn rate is not too good, as if it means that the burn under WinXP is worthless. But after all, the system itself, the use of it is also relatively convenient.
