I operate Windows XP Professional on my laptop which has a CD-Rom Drive but no Burner. Can I still copy or write files from my HD to a CD?

You need a CD Recorder to do this with.

However depending on your NB Type you could probably fit a Slim Line DVD Recorder/Burner to the NB in question. You should be looking at something like $105.00 AU for the Drive and most professional Techs would fit it free depending on the NB in question.

No.

Looks like you'll have to fit a CD-RW, or better still as OH Smeg suggested, fit a slimline DVD/CD-RW.

Happily there are sources of FREE CD Burner software, - just Google for them - but it looks like I'm gonna have to PAY for the coffee. :(
