Success at last :-)) Many thanks to all for the helpful replies. I have a DVD reader - make just says Atapi. I have a Pioneer 109 DVD burner. I had been trying to put the source disk in the Atapi and the blank disk in the Pioneer burner (of course), which seemed a good idea at the time :-)
Your responses made me persevere - so I looked into K3b setup. Made a new Temp file and made sure that K3b was pointing that way. This time I put the source disk in the Pioneer burner, when that was read into my new Temp file, I inserted the blank disk and lo and behold K3b started to write !! What's more went on to complete a successful burn of about 4.4Gig at 4.1X. So it was a case of faulty operator method. I tried to use the reader at the same time as the burner because K3b had previously copied a CD in that way. I still can't work out why I was getting various error messages indicating failure under my previous efforts. __ Many thanks from Charles
