sonic record now

Once again, I am having a problem with my sonic record now.  I try to open sonic record now and get a message saying "no recordable or rewritable devices found on system".  I have had this problem before and was told that the problem was with my drive. it was replaced.  and now i am having the same problem. i have tryed to fix this by uninstalling sonic and then reinstalling but still seem to have this problem.  any input on this situation is greatly appreciated.   thanks

    Hi F-B,
    Lets clear up any possible driver issue.
    Click on the CD/RW link in my post and scroll to Section 15, article 1; Section 11, articles 2 & 1; Section 20, article 3.
    Also verify that the drive has DMA enabled.

    Best Regards




    God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,

    difference.

    Well, i have tryed the things that you suggested and when i reboot it does detect the new hardware added.  The only thing that i did not do was to verify that the drive has DMA enabled only because i have no idea how to do this.  I had this problem shortly after purchasing the computer and it was said that the drive was bad so they replaced it. is it possible that they replaced it with a drive that does not record?  the drive can play a cd just fine it just does not regocnize that there is a recordable device. 

    I am so frustrated.  I feel like such an idiot when it comes to computers.  please bear with me.  your info and help is greatly appreciated.  thanks so much again

    Hi F-B,

    At the CD/RW link, go to Section 15, articles 14 & 13. Also consider Section 100, article 37.

    Best Regards

    I had the same problem, when I run Sonic Recordnow it used to give me an error NO RECORDER. Iupdated the PXengine from the sonic web site and now it works fine. It identifies my DVD/RW- E Drive.

    Try going to SONIC site and download this PXengine upgrades. It mmay help.

    I did this today only.
