I have a 5 years old HP laptop running Vista. The hardware is as supplied when new.
I recently tried to write a playlist to a CDR but when in the rip tab of WMP I got the message "A CD drive is needed in order to rip music from CDs".
In My Computer I can read files from a cd rom, but when I try to burn files nothing happens. In the tab TOOLS>OPTIONS>DEVICES only the speakers and display appear to be installed, and I don't see a way to install or reinstall my DVD drive.
I have both ripped music and burned CDs from Media Player before.
What settings can I check and change to allow WMP to recognise the DVD/RW drive?
