Taken from: http://www.cheetahburner.com/cd/faq.html It may be necessary to have security rights to use the CD/DVD drives. To give CD rights to a non-administrative user, do the following: 1) Open 'Control Panel' and click on 'Administrative Tools'. 2) Double click on 'Local Security Policy'. 3) Double click on 'Security Options'. 4) Double click on 'Restrict CD-ROM access to locally logged-on users only'. 5) Click on Enabled. NOTE: CD/DVD access is not currently possible for users with Non-Administrative rights for Windows XP Home Operating System. Microsoft does not provide a mechanism to provide access this type of access. This limitation does not apply to the Windows XP Professional Operating System.
