CD Writing Problems

[shriekers]

I have a samsung CD Writer When i write a cd with it using nero or any other burning software the software writes the cd normaly but when it's done and i put the cd back in it says it's a blank cd

There is nothing wrong with my drive because i took it too my friends house and it worked fine there.


i use WinXP SP2.

Secondly i have a external Iomega writer which when i connect to my laptop using a printer cable is detected fine but when i connect to my desktop it says unknown device

Thanks in advance

well what u see is ur nero makinn a image to be written not actually writting the cd and hence it is blank if u use nero 5 and u have a
52\32\52 cd writter try upgrading to nero 6 it wiill surely work
www.nero.com or try any other that supports ur writer speeds

You are partially right in yo answer..As m8 neeraj said choose the recorder correctly and then use the nero (any version).
Because te version doesnt matter . I use nero 5.5 samsung 52*32*52x

I use nero 6.6 i guess that should'nt be a problem above which no other cd writing software works but the drive works for sure because it worked in my friends system

in the compilation info.....(from the file menu)
see the tab "burn" make sure that the field "Write" is checked.

also,

in the main window press ctrl + R to open "choose Recorder" window.
now, make sure that your writer's name is in the list, and highlighted.

i think this should solve the problem.
