XP Drivers

[Bill Eue]

Still no response from HP on drivers.

Just bought a new cd16ri (was unaware that it was not supported for XP).

HP is apparently dropping their entire CD 'add-on' line in favor of the soon to be (hopefully) more profitable DVD-RW line. I can only assume that XP drivers have an extremely low priority these days.

Anyone have any suggestions? Besides going back to win2k?

By the way -- the scsi 9100 seems to work in XP -- sort of.

Hello,

According to the below document (which I'm sure you read):

http://www.hp.com/cposupport/information_storage/support_doc/lpg40447.html

"Windows XP-compatible CD recording software is needed to allow the drive to write to CD-R and CD-RW media."

This recording software will be available free of charge from the website soon. In the meantime, one can do nothing else but wait I guess. From the same link, you can tell Hp to be notified when the software is available from the appropriate link.

I know it's not much, sorry.
Vince

MusicMatch Jukebox works good for my cd16 cdrw with XP.

I am using the 7.0 beta version
