well... what can I say. Everyone has been so wonderful and forthcoming with the information!! I really can't thank you all enough ::bow::
* I have now shut down all my virus and firewall protection.
* Bought a new Memorex MRX-530L lightScribe drive (it was the only one left in the only electronics store in my town- which is going out of business
* configured all my jumpers and replaced the IDE wire one more time (i have an 18 incher now!)
*using Imgburn and Verbatim DL discs
and for whatever reason... the music gods have smiled upon me. And I am up and running again.
Everything is burning as it should, and I am not having any issues with anything. it is truly a miracle. heh heh...this is the way it should have been all along....
**BIG HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF**
thanx again to all those who helped out. I would like to believe that I will be able to return the favor someday. Thank you
Namaste.
