If you have an external dvd recorder, it should just plug in to the usb port and your pc should detect it.\n\nIf not, you might have to reinstall it again.\nOnce you pc detects it then it shows up as a drive in your MyComputer.\n\nIf Windows Media Player wont detect it then use another media player. There's lots of them out there.\n\nYOu can use winamp, apple quicktime, Core player, Ultra Player, well i could go on and on.\ngood luck\nstef

I presume it's a .wmv? If so, you need to downlaod Windows Media Player. It's free - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/default.mspx

Unfortuantly media player is quite tightly tied into Windows.\n\nIf upgrading / downgrading / uninstalling / reinstalling doesn't work then you only have one choice...\n\nReinstall the OS.\n\nI had a very similar problem, and that was the only way to resolve the issue.\n\nAlternativly you could switch to RealPlayer which will play all the same formats and more.

The first thing to do, always, with any error like this, is reboot.  If that doesn't help let us know.  If it doesn't, try clearing out the temporary internet files, try getting windows media player upgrades if you don't have the latest version.  As a last resort, go to control panel, add/remove and take it out and then load it again.\n\nAs said earlier, this is a MS program, download it only from microsoft dot com, not some third party.

Proably because you don't have SOFTWARE to burn it. Do you have Nero? If not, Windows has no way to burn DVDs by itself.

InCD software is used to burn your own DVD & CD's.\n\nIf Windows Media Player is not playing your DVD, then you should check if you have the latest version of Media player and have the correct decoders.

You may also check the power cable also. Burning device should have the suply cord for power. if not your pc won't detect any not powered device

Are the drivers for the CD burner properly installed? If not you'd need to install them, and that should fix your problem.

Just copy your downloaded music files to another folder and add that folder tothe windows media player library.. the songs should start playing.\n\nyou can also try winamp.\n\nor go to download.com and get good media players

if your using the windows xp providing burning. it may burn it according to the way it was sorted. \n\nyour best bet is to use windows media player and setting up a playlist so you can choose how it should be played. \n\notherwise, get a third party program like nero to take care of the job... But if it is WMA, Windows Media Player will suffice just fine.

There is a driver issue. Re-install Windows Media Player.

Are you connected to the internet?\n\nIf yes, try to start Internet Explorer up and turn there the Working Offline mode off.\n\nIf no, connect to the internet :)\n\nIf non of this works, something is wrong with your Windows Media Player, you could try installing it again. You can also get information about CDs by doing a Google search...
