hi,

I recently bought a used computer and the CD drive was only a DVD drive. in my other computer, it was a CD-RW drive. they were both dells so I just popped out the drives and switched them, hooked them back up. they power up and work and CDs read and play fine and everything, but I still can't burn on the CD-RW drive in the new computer. my question is: is there some sort of software or driver support or something I need to download for this new CD-RW drive to be able to burn?

any help would be appreciated. thanks so much!
