Hello Paul,

It did have a CD in it although it
wasn't blank. So I erased it or so
I thought and tried it again with
the same result.

I guess I have to buy some new cd's

Thanks,

Does it have "RW" in the name ? Those
would be erasable.

These are the ones I have. I only have
small quantities (small cake boxes).

CD-R Only write them once (cannot erase)
CD-RW Erase and rewrite
DVD+RW Erase and rewrite

I also have one DVD-R dual layer (9GB) left.
Some of the slowest writing media in the world (2X rate?).
I think it took around an hour to burn one.
I'll probably stay unused, because I can't think
of anything to waste it on.
