    I was wondering if anyone could help me - its probably a really stupid question and will (hopefully) have a simple solution. I ripped a load of songs last night from various CD's onto a Playlist - when I had them all done (over 6 hours worth) I tried to burn them onto a blank disk and the computer kept asking me to 'load a blank disc into E:\' (I definitely had the disc in the E drive before anyone asks!) - I tried three different types of blank discs all which had 'music storage' on them... where oh where am I going wrong?.. would appreciate any advice!!.. :D

    What to you mean exactly when you say they had "music storage" on them?

    What software were you using to try and burn?

    Windows media player (I think - sorry I'm a total computer pleb..), I am sure I saw another burn device on the computer though.. would it be worth trying to burn it from a different source?

    By any chance are you trying to burn all 6 hours onto the one disk?
