0sit0 Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 Hello: i just wanted to know if someone remembers a tweak, in the registry, that makes Windows to recognize your CDrom as a RW an R or no comparible with XP, it was something about Type=1 where 1=CDRW, 2=??? and 3=???, but alse there was an option of changing the speed of the burner, i tried that and my Yamaha 24x10x40 worked 100% good, i reinstalled XP and now i can only burn @ 16X, and the CDs are the same, i can't remember where i found that tweak, but i think it was here, Help please!

+primortal Subscriber² Posted February 15, 2002 Subscriber² Share Posted February 15, 2002 Found it searching groups.google.com The behavior may be that Windows XP could not recognize the CD-RW drive automatically. Let's perform the following steps to modify the registry to let Windows XP treats the device as the CD-RW.1. Run Regedit to open the Registry Editor 2. Switch to the following key HKEY CURRENT USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerCD BurningDrives All CD drives show up in same key "Drive Type" value determines whether drive is capable of writing and rewriting 01=CD-R Drive 02=CD-RW Drive 03=Write Disabled 3. Note: if you have more than 1 CD-ROM / CD-RW devices installed, you will see the related items under the Drivers. Please change the keys one by one, so you can find the correct key. After doing the above steps, try to burn the CDs in Windows XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
