just a few days ago I tried to burn a CD. when I try it tells me to connect aburning device and restart the program, however my burner is internal and there is no connecting it. I later discovered that it wont recognize that I even put a CD in. I've burned and ripped cd's in the past with no problems. I have Vista home premium with a 64X2 processor if that helps. Also about 2 years ago I got a insignia mp3 player. for a good 6 months it worked fine with my computer. then it started telling me that my computer didn't recognize the device and it wont sync up. I thaught it may be the mp3 player itself but it synced up with my friends computer just fine. I've since learned to live without syncing but no burning or ripping come on! any help would be greatly appreciated.
You might have a physical problem with the drive, go to the Device Manager and see if there's any reported problem. Go to Computer-System Properties-Device Manager.
Thank you everyone for your help.I went to the device manager and it says "windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)". I checked for solutions and no luck yet, am I screwed?

ok you need to uninstall the device in device manager, and restart your computer, this will in turn re-install your drive and hopefully solve the problem. please post on here if the problem is solved.
