I recently set up a new HP computer with FC2. Now I'm trying to get everything working properly -- what I have left to do is determine why I don't have sound and why I can't burn CDs. This post is about the problem burning CDs.
I have started a coaster collection. I now have a set of 5 coasters and counting. I've included the rather verbose output of my attempt to burn a cd below. I really appreciate any suggestions! Note: I tried setting the speed to 4, and it didn't work.
First, a little information about my system:

I've seen several good suggestions in my searches here, but so far nothing has helped with this problem. Once again, thanks for any help!!!
