Hey there. Looks like you and I have the same problem. I have narrowed it
down to the imapi service being turned off as soon as you hit next on the
wizard to write the pictures to the disc. Does anyone know what would cause
the service to be switched off like that? When the disc ejects, and is
replaced with a new blank disc, the cd drive does recognize it as a propper
disc. But then the same thing happens again. I would restart the imapi
service, and as soon as I hit next on the wizard, it is switched off again
and the wizard errors out. Anybody have any ideas???
