Let us know if they work for you.

Civic, there are linked articles and other links within those mentioned in that topic. If you dig down through it I'm sure you'll find information which will lead to the resolution of your problem.

Experience tells me that when problems such as yours arise, there has been more than one instance of CD burning software installed, and the problem is created by the reultant conflicts and corruption in the OS.

Quite frankly, the most straightforward and sure way to resolve it is to start over and install clean again. If you'd like to avoid doing so, then weeding your way down through all the links and sites the link above leads to will contain your particular solution somewhere.

Wot should i search 4? i only got nero....

what type of drive is it and what OS are you running?
Have you changed your ide cable to a new one?
what software are you using to burn cds?
if its a new dvdrw you might need a eide cable, I was having problems with my burners, I put a new eide cable in and that fixed my problem.

its a TEAC DV-W22E its a DVD-R Burner and wot the hell is a ide cable?
+ NERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SAID IT:!: :!: :!:

maybe if you were to display a bit more maturity and at least attempt to speak normal, syntactically correct English, you'd be able to understand better what others try to communicate to you (plus those others would better understand what you try to communicate to them).

Just playing dumb isn't going to help you...

IDE cable is the flat ribbon cable that connects your dvd-r or cd rom to the mother board. But never mind that becuase I didn't see that this is a laptop.
Sorry if you posted it before I didn't see it in any of your posts in this thread.

Well I'm sorry,In the title it says that I cannot read any disk media and I cannot afford $500 for a new DVD-R burner. The problem is on a laptop and I go to high school and i would like it if you 'techie gurus' could help me. It also cannot burn.
