E drive not accessible

​ ​​I am having problems with my E drive(dvd/cd-rw drive). We have burned a cd and it works fine, but when I try to copy my pictures to a cd-r, it says "e drive is not accessible" ​​ ​
​ ​​ ​
​ ​​I have unistalled both drivers and reinstalled, I have uninstalled Roxio cd creator and reinstalled. ​​ ​
​ ​​ ​
​ ​​Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? ​​ ​
​ ​​ ​

The first thing to try for this would be to remove the upper/lower filters as described in this article.

If that does not work, please provide the model of your system and any CD/DVD drives.

It said, " you do not have access to the folder E see your administrator for access to this folder"

Are you using Roxio to copy pictures? You might want to try the XP CD burning Wizard. Open Windows Explorer, select the file(s) you want to write to the disc, right click the selected files, hover over Send to, then select CD-RW (or DVD-RW) drive. Windows will copy the files to a temporary location and a little bubble will pop up telling you there are files waiting to be written to the CD. Click that and a box will pop up showing files on the disc and files waiting to be written to the disc. Click File, Write these files to CD.

still says:  E is not accessible

                 incorrect function...

 

It will not let me copy anything.  Do you have any other ideas?

Ok, Windows may not be seeing your drive as a CD recorder. See if this article helps.
