Hi there... My CD burner works fine when there is content on the CD but when I go to insert a blank CD to be burned the green light just keeps flashing but nothing happens. Window pops up asking that a blank CD be inserted into the drive but it's already inserted and doesn't recognize the blank CD to be burned. Nothing happens and the pop up doesn't disappear. I wonder if I just need to buy a new CD-R burner device for my computer??? Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!!!

Your drivers are missing or corrupted. This sounds like my problem when I down loaded and installed windows media player 11. Microsoft doesn't want you to burn CD's, or thats the messege I got. Even after deleting WM 11, I still couldn't do anything because my driver's were gone. I finally had to go to recovery console. Check to see if you have an application recover in your start menu, if so try it. Other than recovery, you might get one of your friends to make a copy of theirs and e-mail it to you. It's not your hardware. it's your software.

I WOULD CHECK TO SEE IF YOU ARE USING THE RIGHT BLANK CD'S.YOU MIGHT NEED TO GET THE RIGHT TYPE FOR YOUR DRIVE.THERE ARE DIFFERENT SPEEDS. CAN YOU WRITE TO A USED CD OR JUST PLAY IT?
