I'm using Photosuite 7 to creat a sildeshow and then DVD builder to burn it to disc. But I keep getting "error while examining drives." What's the deal?

You know, I'm not sure I can answer that question, at least not in the sort of detail you provide at the end of your message. I've got this much.

Gateway, Windows XP,
Celeron ® CPU 2.60GHz
2.60HGz, 1.99GB of Ram

The odd thing is that I've burned CDs in the past, and it's always worked fine. And now, when I need it to work, blooey!

You'll get more info if you go to
Control Panel>System Properties....select the "hardware" tab, click on the "Device Manager" button, expand the list trees.

If you've got a drive error, it'll help to know what drive you have, and you'll find it there.

At this point all I could speculate is that maybe your burner is on its way to burner heaven.

good luck

Are you trying to burn the slideshow to a CD or DVD? Your burner can only burn to CD not to DVDs.
