"No disk" after burning a cd with XP

[Serge]

Good morning,

After burning a CD with Xp ( an ppt file ! ) and ejecting
the CD, next time I open powerpoint, i've got the error
message "DDE Server Window: POWERPOINT.EXE - No disk"
It seems that powerpoint try automatically to open the
file just burned on a cd a few minutes ago

I've already tried and repair office...

Many thanks in advance !
Serge

Dear User,

I think your problem is of corrupt CD writing . You may go through this page
for burning a CD through XP .

or you may download Nero CD Burner from

For future reference, it's a bad idea to save directly to CD from PowerPoint
(for this and other reasons). Instead, save to your local hard drive then use
your CD burning software to make the cd.

In fact i dont save it from powerpoint.
Here's all the process :
I create a powerpoint presentation, save it to a drive
(locally or on a server)
I CLOSE powerpoint
I burn the file on a cd, in this case i've tried with
Roxio easy cd creator
I eject the cd and close the cdrom burner
I start again powerpoint and get the error message
"DDE Server Window: POWERPOINT.EXE - No disk"

For now, try putting a CD in the drive, any non-blank CD, then start PPT again.
Does that get you past the startup problem?

Yes when i insert another cd it works ! but next time the
problem occurs again !

Thank you in advance for any help !
