CDR not recognizing blank media in XP

[ryan]

I have just installed Xp and found that my ASUS CDR drive
will not detect blank media. Any software will run ok. but
as soon as i use blank media to do a burn, my buring
software will tell me to insert a blank cd even though
there is one in the drive. i know this is not a problem
with my burning software as it does it with XP burning
software aswell. The burner was working fine on win 2000
as i just used it to back up my system before istalling
XP.
Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated,

thank you
Ryan

Did you format the CD first?

I don't know what XP you have (home or Pro) and what burning software you
are using, but I had a similar problem with XP Pro and an ASUS burner, and I
solved it by deselecting the burn feature of XP.

Select the CDR drive, right click mouse, select the burn or recording tab
and deselect the option.

I hope this helps.
