Definitely: not compatible!

No way.
Philips PCRW804K does not work with CDA.
I have tried all the suggestions given in this forum. I even messed the installation in other programs, besides damaging Windows itself.
The drive even started presenting errors with other programs that it previously worked with.
Back in good shape now. My feeling is: Sonic Foundry messed with the drivers. Sonic Foundry damaged a good program.

The Philips drive you mentioned isn't supported in CD Architect. All of the supported drives are listed here:

The drive even started presenting errors with other programs that it previously worked with.

You may just need to update the Firmware and ASPI, but that may also be a sign that the drive is going bad.

Sonic Foundry messed CDA. Pity!
