Please Help. I really need to use my burner at the moment and it isn't working. The problem is that when I try to burn something I insert a blank CD-R and the burning programs will keep giving me the same message, that it does not recognise a CD in the drive and that I have to insert a blank CD-R. This isn't a problem with the burning program as I get the same problem on Nero, Ashampoo and Easy CD Creator. Although when I put a normal CD that contains data into the Burner Drive it will recognise it. I have checked all the physical connections inside the comp, they are fine. My Burner is an: Acer CD-R/CD-RW 10/8/32 I am running Windows ME. Any advice will be gratefully appreciated. Thanx in advance.
