CD-ROM won't write

My puter is only 1 1/2 yrs. old...I wrote a CD just seven days ago, and now...no matter what CD I put in, it will not write. The box comes up and says: "There was an error in the writing process and that my disc may no longer be usable."
The light for the CD-ROM comes on and then goes off.
I've read the previous CD-ROM problems, but none have answered my question of "Why won't it write?" I'm using the same brand of CD's that I've always used. I've even tried 2 NEW ones and get the same error.
