IMAPI cd burning com service

[bluewind.]

I have XP SP2 pro on my hp pavillion laptop. I downloaded isorecorder to burn a movie to a blank dvd. I right-clicked on the iso and clicked copy image to cd but I got an error message saying that the IMAPI cd burning com service should be started. I looked in services but did not find such a service. What do I do?

Nevermind, I was able to burn the iso using CDBurnerXP. Still have no idea why I don't have the IMAPI service though!

Not sure why you couldn't find it, but here's more info about the service that may be useful:

I know what it is, but why isn't it listed under my services?
