Can\'t copy files to cd

[Cerberus]

I\'ve got a folder load of files I want to put onto a cd-rom/cd-rw for backup, but for some reason, it won\'t let me.

When I try to put them onto the cd, an error box pops up saying

E:\\ is not accessable
Incorrect function.

I know it should work, because I\'ve done it before.

What could be causing it to do this?

Windows driver Update shit probably

so how to I fix it?

You can click start then all programs. At the top it should say Windows Update, you can click that.

According to Unicron, that was the cause of it.
Anyway, I had a look, and nothing was listed for it.

has the cd already been burnt to with the session closed?

No, they are brand new cds, just out of the box.

Isn\'t there a windows fix for fixing problems burning cds?
I would try windows update. Goto there site directly and check to see what updates you don\'t have on your pc.

There is now fix for cd burning listed.

I have to assume you tried the freezer.  I would mainly put the discs in.  It helps tighten up the disc molecules and produces a better burn.

If that doesn\'t work, I\'d take the disc recorder out and put it in the freezer.  It can\'t hurt.

I can\'t put it in the freezer, my PS2 is in there as is my DVD player, minidisc player, a tray of icecubes covered in 6 inches of frost from last summer and a bag of 6 month old sprouts.

What\'s the next best thing to do?

You mean the problem appeared after you indeed updated anything from Windows Update?

No, it just happened all of a sudden, I didn\'t do anything.

That\'s what is puzzling me, if I had done anything, I might be able to figure out how to fix it.

A few weeks into getting this comp, I backed a folder with a load if important files in it onto a cd.

Then about a week ago, I tried it again, and I got the error message. I\'ve spent until then trying to figure out wtf is wrong with it, without any success.

Is this a new type of discs you bought or have you burned one from this pack before?

No, like I said, they are a pack of brand new cd-rw disks, straight out of the packaging.

I also found an unopened cd-rom disk from the same batch as the one I successfully used before, but that didn\'t work either.
