Hi I cant record on a cd-r but i can on a cd-rw why? the cdrw is 1-4x and
the cdr is 1-48x it tells me that with the cd-r that I have no disk in the
drive? why ? help thanks
 
A few questions for you. Have you burned CD-Rs successfully on this drive
in the past? Are the CD-Rs brandname and brandnew? Once a CD-R has
been used you cannot add, delete or remove files from/to them. What
application are you using to record to the CD-Rs? Do you have either Roxio
or Nero to burn disks. Also check here: Doubleclick the My Computer icon
on your desktop and rightclick your CD drive and click Properties. Then click
the Recording tab and make sure that "Enable Recording on this Device"
is checked, if not check it, click Apply and OK out.
