I have used the free CDBurnerXP for so long that I had almost forgotten about WinXP burner... CDBXP does everything I need, generally, and on those occasional times when I need something else, the WinXP burner worked okay, nothing fancy, just gets the job done, but I do not know if this is much help to you, I use CDBXP and ImgBurn now, both free and much more capable programs... I do Tech Support for about 25-30 different customers and also do contract work for about 5-8 different contractors, and I carry CDBXP with me and use it on the job and install it on customers computers and show them how to use it...
