Microsoft on Thursday posted a patch to correct problems that can occur when burning CDs under Windows XP. When copying files or folders to a recordable compact disc, the CD can become unreadable and individual files are sometimes lost. Occasionally, the disc will work fine under XP, but not older versions of Windows or external CD players.
D/l the patch here:

Not sure how many pple actually use XP's CD burning ability

Not a problem

One question though, where in the world do you activate the "feature"? I'm too lazy to look for it
