When you select the CD/DVD burner device, if it is not compatible with the primary built-in burner the following message will appear: [Device name] Does not appear to be a writer or it is busy.

There are 2 possibilities now to get this to work:
  1. Go to Tools->Options->Backup and in the CD/DVD section select Use secondary burning engine and make sure that Burn CD/DVD using internal ASPI is checked.
  2. If selecting the secondary burner doesn’t solve the problem, uncheck Burn CD/DVD using internal ASPI and restart Backup4all.
If this does not help, you can still burn your CDs using the UDF file system (with DirectCD or InCD). You can select this burning option in the CD/DVD Advanced Settings window.

ReviewsReviews

"To be honest, I always say <<I'll burn that backup folder someday this week>> and the week passes without having my files backed up.

Reviews

With Backup4all this issue can disappear, and the stress related to <<what if my hard drive crashes>> problem will disappear. I think that I'll leave the backup tasks for this program from now on. What about you?"
