I recently upgraded my system, new MB, CPU, RAM, and SATA II HD. I moved from
my old box a Pioneer DVD/CD R/W drive. I reinstalled XP and made it up-to-date
w/ SP-2 and auto-update.
In the past there were a couple batch files that copied files to a rewritable
CD in the Pioneer device. I had been using both for quite a while w/o problem.
Now, in the new box, when my batch file attempts to write to the CD
(essentially writing over earlier iterations of all the files) I get an "access
denied" message and there is nothing written to the CD. I can copy data files
to a blank CD in this drive but when I go into a DOS window to try to delete
these files (rewritable CD) I get the same access denied message.
I can copy data, music, and video files to CD's in this drive. It will play
DVD's; I haven't tried to copy or create a DVD yet.
BTW, I have having the same problem with a new NEC DVD/CD drive that I
purchased along with the other hardware.
I have checked every place I can think of for switches or other variables that
might be connected to this problem. The drivers that XP is using are dated
2001. My understanding is that the OEM programs that came with both these
drives are what I use to perform some of the higher end movie compilation
authoring functions but that these are all unrelated to the problem I am having
in DOS mode.
As is often the case, what is so bewildering to me is that these functions
performed w/o a hitch on the same drive with what I think is the same software
in my other box.
As always, your patience and help are appreciated.
Harry
