RE: Vista and CD/DVD burning

I am having same Problem as BurrWalnut. I have not Installed Nero, and I don't
have AOL, and I have been a Computer Tech all my Life, and I love Vista, I
have gotten everything to work, or Microsoft has sent me an update, that
fixes the Problem within 2 Hours of sending the Error to them. The only
problem, is I can't get Vista to Burn anything. Seems to only work with
Music and Video. I can Erase DVD also, but if I drag a Data File to the DVD,
or use Media Player and Drag a Data File to the Drag Widow, I get a Red
Circle with a Cross thru it like a "Wrong Way" sign on a Road. Nothing in
Help seems to work on this subject. Any Suggestions? I have this Machine
in Dual Boot with XPH, and Nero or XP has no Problems with Burning with the
Same Drive. I also get this Stupid Message that my Video Card won't support
DVD Burning. What does the Video Card have to do with Burning a Data Disk,
or even with Burning a DVD, I'm not watching the Movie, I just want to Burn
it, and I surely don't want to watch the Data Burn!! Video Card works fine
in Windows Vista and XP, and it's a Rage 64 PCI by ATI, a top of the Line
Video Card!!

Can anyone help me! I guess I'm going to go back to XP to Burn my CD's and
DVD's until they fix this!
