Does anyone know why I can only write CDs under Administrator? If any other user logs in to the computer they cannot use the CD recorder. Is it Windows or is it the CD recorder software? If anyone has had this problem and solved it, please let meknow.

Give the user temporay admin rights and install the software with that user. Then verify if he can use the software as a normal user.
Else check with the software vendors for a fix, or indeed use another software.

Was the CD writing software installed through the add remove programs or was it just run from disk when the administrator was logged on? I have have problems like this when users load software by letting the autorun from the cd do the install. Then any other use has problems running said software. The solution was to install the software when logged on as the administrator and then using add remove programs to install it.
