Disc Burner Not Working

Hi I have a Compaq Presario SR5501P and I have had it for probably about 8 or 9 months now. A couple of weeks ago I tried to burn a disc (music to be exact) and the hardware was not recognized. I tried several different programs, from Windows Media Player to CD Burner XP, and none of them recognized my drive. It is the drive that came with the computer and I have burned discs before, so I know it works, or at least used to. It reads discs just fine, just doesn't want to burn them. Thanks in advance for any help!

    Ok thanks, but just one thing: it doesn't seem like a problem with the hardware, feels like it's just something in some software. Would that still count as warranty?

My Burner has a problem

The problem looks like a native of the drive. There are possibilities of the drive being faulty. As it is still under warranty, I'd recommend you take both laptops to the nearest HP service station for a replacement.

Laptop CD/DVD Drive

I think buying a USB DVD drive is a very sensible idea as internal drives on laptops can be a pain to remove and fit and they are more prone to failure than their desktop brothers because of their flimsy construction.
