Cannot burn Cd's
6 Answers
Anyone help please ? Using windows XP and Nero, no problems until yesterday whereby i just cant burn CDs Ive made no alterations to the system - have tried several brands of CDR and strangel I CAN burn DVDs ??
Also when I look at the "my computer" icon if theres a CD in there the drive will show blank, if however theres a DVD it will show - surely (he says hopefully:-)) this couldnt be a hardware issue if it burns DVDs, Im just a little baffled as to why it doesnt recognise CDR of CDRW (all of a sudden??) any help would really be appreciated please, I have now run out of ideas:-)
Thanks

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.i know this is obvious but have you changed your selection in nero to cd,if dvd is still selected then obviously it will not see the cd.also i am afraid that your writer might be on the way out as i had a simular prob where it wouldn't see cd's only and had to get a new drive.the other thing is you could try updating your writers firmware/driver from the manufacturers website.
