Trouble With CD burner?
i am trying to burn cds to a blank disk and it will burn the cd and then when i put in the blank disk it will only copy 2 songs then say ERROR. i only used these disks a couple of weeks ago to copy songs off my computer? i have tried every single burning program on my computer: nti, windows media player, nero they dont work.....
can anyone help...URGENT?
my burner is built into my computer with my dvd burner too.
my computer isnt a laptop, its a acer desktop windows xp. i didnt have to install the programs on it, they where on there when we bought it? i dont know much about computers, so when helping please dull it down a bit.
it just said read error on one program and on the other it said clean disk...i have just cleaned my drive with a disk cleaner and it still doesnt work? but my dvd burner works?

1. try to write on a lower speed
2. Sometimes dvd-rw don't have a large enough buffer to hold data and on buffer memory down the error occurs, so you have to let the comp just to write the disk and close other apps
3. I could be because of the files you want to write, they could be corrupted or, I don't know, they do not have the proper access property
(4). Clean disk may occur when the inserted cd is clean and you try to write(continue) a multisession disk.
(5). Sometimes there are incopatibilityes of drive with the cd/dvd - my LG didn't wanted to write properly a sony cd-rw
Good luck!

You can try a different brand of CDs. Most of the time its cheap media that doesnt work :-)

First off, you might want to try to uninstall and then reinstall the device driver.
Secondly, it sounds like you're writing speed is not correctly set, unfortunately though you don't specify which software you are using.
If you would like me to tell you how to do this, then feel free to email me! =)

Its a problem with the peripheral. It is unable to write multiple sessions. Please replace the peripheral.
