    Windows 7 has the built in capability to write data to a disk... just insert a blank and follow the prompts.

    The Official ImgBurn Website is a good free tool that does most other disk copying things that Win7 doesn't do itself.

    realwarder, thanks so much for helping me out. I have been using XP for a long time. Never used Vista. This is a big change for me.

    Regards.

    CDBurnerXP works good too and it's free. It's a little more versatile than ImgBurn and can do Blu-rays too. You just got to uncheck the google toolbar.

    I used to use CDBurnerXP and it is good, possibly better for the general user.

    The great thing is both are free to try and you can have both installed at once to see which you prefer :)

    The only problem I found with Windows (XP, Vista and 7) built-in recorder is that you can't close the disc, only sessions. :rolleyes:

    You might find Roxio Business Edition for Windows 7 on Lenovo Driver Download site.
    Oh search for Corel Burn.Now on your machine first.
