I had a TDK 12x Burner and it recently would not do anyting for me. It would
not even read a regular game disc. So I replaced it with a new philips one,
and it burned flawlessly. I just tried to use it and it is doing the same
thing it does not recongnize any disc's at all. I am at a loss as to why. I
have tried uninstalling it as well and it still does the same thing. I am
running winxp home and have checked the drivers as well. Anyone that may
know why please let me know.
 
I had the same problem with both my CD-RW and DVD-RW drives. They both just
stopped working. I was using Roxio Easy CD Creator 5 Platinum. I
uninstalled and then reinstalled and it still didn't help. I finally went to
Roxio's site and downloaded their update (recommended for WinXP) and
everything works fine now. I had previously done the XP update but figure
it somehow became corrupted (or a WinXP update did something to it). At any
rate both drives are working fine. If you use Easy CD Creator, you might
try using the WinXP update on that and see what happens.
 
I seemed to have fixed the problem by doing the dumbest thing ever. I went
into properties on the burn drive and clicked on the recording tab and the
check mark for enable recording was checked. So I unchecked it and hit apply
then I rechecked it and hit apply. Now it is working. Go figure
