I have already tried that an i wasnt able to get it to work. The problem i am having is that staff and students drag files on to the CD drive for writing cd's. It currently asks them to insert a disk, even if one is in.

I looked in the properties of the CD drive and i noticed in the recordings tab that Enable CD recording on this drive is not ticked, but below it says that an administrator can only change this. If i log off as admin, change it then back on as staff or student the button is still unticked.

Is there anyone else out there with a similar problem.

Thanks
