My DVD-RW will not burn any CD

Hi and thanks for checking my problem: I have a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-112D drive that I cannot get to burn onto a CD. I first noticed it when I tried to burn music using Windows Media Player 11 but I've since tried Nero, iTunes and Dexster with no luck. When I tried Nero it gave me the write error message: ILLEGAL DISC/ COULD NOT PERFORM END-OF-DISC AT ONCE. I have tried 3 brands of CD-R discs. I also tried to burn a CD of photos using both Windows and Nero to see if music was the problem. Wouldn't burn that either. Nero gave me the error message: COULD NOT PERFORM FIXATION. Now, here's the kicker: It does burn DVD discs using DVDfab. (That is the only program I tried burning a movie onto.) And the trial of burning photos onto a DVD disc using Nero was successful. I tried removing DVDfab, WinDVD and Dexster in case they were causing some kind of problem. Still no luck with Nero or Windows. DVD-Rom drive will play and rip music from a CD using Windows Media Player 11 and iTunes just fine. I hope you can help me, Emily
