... does anyone know any good freeware besides Nero, which won't work on my machine? Help will be greatly appreciated, as I have to make some party cd's for my girlfriend's birthday party this saturday!
In you peeps I trust,

one year passes...

I'm using Nero 5.5.6.4 on WinXP Dell notebook (with RecordNow! pre-installed), but when I try to burn an audio CD (haven't tried yet with data CDs yet), it brings up the "Writing" dialogue but doesn't go through finalizing the CD, and in fact, there's no data written on the CD at all (i.e. I can reuse the CD to burn with RecordNow). The "Simulation" & "Determine Max Write Speed" boxes are greyed out, too.

What can I do, or what good burning programs (e.g. free(ware), allows me to dictate how many seconds between tracks, etc.) should I get?

never mind about cd burning programs, what about book-burning pogroms?

http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/ is possibly the best audio ripper/burner in existence. However, I am not certain it can do data CDs. It is free, however.

i have 2 drives; can EAC do direct 1 to 2 w/o ripping? my basic roxio program can, but it's some bullshit and insists on a 2 sec. gap btw tracks.

My guess is no; EAC is designed to be as bit-perfect as possible.

I've used burnatonce at work; it seems to work pretty well, but I've only used it with data CDs. It had trouble burning a Knoppix image to disc, but Nero couldn't burn the same image file either.

At home, I use a copy of Roxio that my dad bought ages ago. My dad always seems to avoid freeware if he can spend £50 on something that'll do the same thing.

iTunes. I burn all my music with iTunes, and all my files with the built-in Windows function, and I've never had a problem. Well, not a problem related to the software.
