SUMMARY

The discussion centers on issues encountered while attempting to install a CD burner after reformatting a computer. Users reported receiving error messages such as "access is denied" and "LoadLanguage failed," along with prompts indicating insufficient space on the D drive for installation. Despite having 14.8 GB of free space on the C drive, the installation process fails. It is concluded that most modern CD burners do not require specific drivers, and users are advised to download compatible burner software like Nero for successful installation.

I reformatted my computer and now everything seems to be working good again excpet now I can't get my cd burner to install. I hooked the burner up and put the installation disk in D drive (CD ROM) and hit install. I get a message saying "access is denied" then "LoadLangauge failed" then "There is not enough space on drive D:\ to extract this package. Please free up 16.43 MB and click Retry." why is it asking for more space on the installation disk cd in the cd rom drive? when I check for available space on C drive in tools, all I get is info on A drive which is the floppy disk drive. I do, however, have 14.8 GB free on the hard drive. I've never had this trouble installing my cd burner before.

Most cd burners don't need specific drivers anymore. Just download burner software like Nero and you're good to go.
