Burning a CD


Question Posted Sunday May 6 2007, 6:02 pm

Okay,
This sounds like a REALLY stupid question,
but im sitting at the moment with songs ive downloaded off limewire on wondows media player and a blank CD in the CD drive [I dont know what the drive is called even, dur!] Its the one below the DVD drive and you normally put computer games into it anyway.
But I highlight the songs I want to burn and get an error message
"Insert a blank CD-R or CD-RW in CD drive (E:) and then try again"
I have...
Its a CD-R, i've never used them, but I'ev tried to use them the same was as I've used CD-RW
Thanks
-Sho

You can only burn a CD-R ONCE. After you've burned them one time, they are done, forever. So use a CD-R that's never been used.

If your computer still says that it's not blank, your computer might just not like that brand of disk. I've had particularly bad experiences with memorex disks, where they wouldn't be recognized by my computer.

If you're still having trouble, ask me with more details(pictures of your computer and screenshots if you can), or ask this at [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) . Good luck!
