Copy Cd To Harddrive

I am trying to copy a cd from my computer to my hardrive. When I put the cd in to copy it does nothing, if I go to my dvd rw drive it show a cd I had copied before which I cannot get rid of. This is a dell computer and it is hard for me to figure out now how to copy a cd from this unit to my hard drive.
Not sure is this is enough information but I have had good advice from other questions I have posted.

 

If you don't already have it, d/load, install and run CDBurnerXP. It has a copy disk feature.

 

If it shows a cd you copied previously, then it may be that you inadvertidly removed the previous cd, and it still thinks it is there.
You can try right clicking on the cd drive, whilst no disc is in there, and click eject,or, if you have the previous cd, put it back in, and then right clicking eject. This should clear the system.

 

Thanks
