My HP DVD Writer 300c no longer recognizes when blank CDs are inserted. Because of this I can no longer burn anything. Any Ideas. Thanks.

Forgot to mention that it does however recognize game/video DVDs/CDs and any burned DVDs/CDs that I have. There is only an issue with blank media.

What program are you using to burn the data?

get up-dated drivers for your burning software. Sounds like it has become corrupted

Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks

I usualy use Nero but even windows doesn't recognize that a blank cd is in the drive. It used to work fine. Has only been an issue for a couple months now.
