Old Grizzly...
Remeber saying Ingburn i a good bit of software? well how do i just
copy a cd? i cant see how.
TIA

Steve...
ImgBurn is just for Burning if you want to copy just use Windows

pmj...
windoze own (built-in) CD Burning stuff won't *Copy* a CD!!!
OK, yes, it can be used to Copy the *Files* on a CD to another one,
but that isn't the same as Copying a CD - if the CD (that you are
Copying) was Bootable (for example) then if you just Copy the Files on
it to another CD, then the CD you make won't be Bootable.

To Copy a CD (as well as to make or burn an ISO Image) you do need
proper CD Burning Software, such as Nero (or any of the other CD
Burning Utilities).

Apparently CDBurnerXP Pro (which is Free) is quite good & is
recommended by a lot of people/Sites & Magazines but I haven't
used it so I don't know what it's like.

I've just had a look at their Site & it looks like it may well be
worth a try, so I've just Downloaded it & will Install it & try it.

Old Grizzly...
i'll watch with interest, i shall avoid Nero like the plague i think.


Old Grizzly...
looked at that but the feature to copy a cd/dvd is not implemented yet

pmj...
Yep, I noticed that...
(I Downloaded it & Installed it on one of the Virtual Machine
Installations that I have, cos I wasn't sure if I wanted it Installed
on my main Installation)

They haven't (yet) Implemented a (One-Click, Single Action) Copy -
BUT...

You can still do a (complete) Copy of a CD/DVD using it - just Create
an .ISO Image File of the CD/DVD you want to Copy & then use the Option
to Burn that .ISO Image as a CD/DVD

Old Grizzly...
i still have it installed so i'll have a look at that... Thanks
