JSI Tip 7505. You cannot copy files to your CD-R/CD-RW drive in Windows Server 2003?

Your CD-R/CD-RW drive is not functional in Windows Server 2003. You experience any of the following:

- You cannot copy files to the drive.

- The Recording tab is missing when you view the Properties of the drive.

- You receive "The disk in the drive is not a readable CD or is full".

This behavior will occur if the IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service is Disabled, the default state of this service.

To workaround this behavior, see How do I enable the CD Burning service in Windows Server 2003?.

NOTE: You may have to log off and log on for this setting to become effective.
