I have burned music and data cds before but now every time that I try it always tells me to enter a writeable disc even though I have just put a blank one in. I am using CD-R disc and that is what I have always used. Anyone got a suggestion?

Example of Oxymoron: Person who is pro life and anti sex education. Education is key to prevention. Prevent conception you prevent abortion. Abstinence training clearly isn't working.
