Can't Burn CDs with Media Player - No Error Message

I have several songs I have downloaded from the Walmart Music site that
I would like to burn to a CD. I can play them and have transferred
them successfully to a couple of different MP3 players. When I create
a burn list and press burn, nothing happens - no error message,
nothing.

I have tried both WMP 9 and WMP 10 with the same results. My CD/RW
drive is installed and is working correctly (verified in device
manager). I have also tried changing the recording speed with no
success.

I am running Win XP with Service Pack 2.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Flippy

Can you burn non-purchased content?

No, I was not able to burn any type of content to an audio CD from
WMP. I would load the burn list, press "copy" and would get a brief a
message saying "processing" or something to that effect then it would
immediately go back to the original screen with nothing being burned.

I did finally manage to get it to work by downloading the Nero fast
burning plug-in. Not sure why, but it works now as long as I use that
plug in.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
