yllekb Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I have an External DVD Writer on my laptop, How do I get ImgBurn to see the drive? I have seen the post where it can be connected, just not how to connect the drive. Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 If Windows can see it, ImgBurn will see it. How is the drive connected? USB or Firewire? Hhave you opened your Device Manager to see if there's a driver missing? Did the drive come with an installation CD? Etc... Etc.... More info, please.

I have been able to create images of games from the device. ImgBrn log shows it detects a DVD drive but does not allow me to select it as a device to write.

Silly question: Have you actually selected WRITE mode before attempting to burn your disk? The fact that you've created an image using that drive shows that it and ImgBurn are working.
