burning files on cd

[WhOs NeXt?]

Ok experts here it goes. When I want to burn a file or
folder on a cd I put a blank cd in(we will call it CD#1)
and the go to the folder hit save as then goto my
computer, c drive , then to the cd drive or burner. It
then puts it into a folder that sais file waiting to be
written or somthing like that. Ok no problem I select to
write and it burns. Then the disc drive opens and I take
the disc out and select finish and its done. Ok here is
where Im having my problem now I want to burn some more
stuff on the same disc (CD#1).I put CD#1 in the burner and
then find the folder. When i select save as it doesnt give
me the file waiting to be written as a selection.So what I
have to do is take out CD#1 put a blank cd(CD#2)go to the
folder select save as then it opens that files waiting to
be written thing. Now i cant get that disc out unless I
log off and then back on thats when the cd drive thing
will open up and allow me to remove the blank disk CD#2(I
dont know an easier way) and replace it with the CD#1 that
I want to burn some more stuff on and then I can burn on
that disk. There must be an eaiser way. Please help I hope
that not too confusing.

There is an easier way.. go to a store and purchase Nero CD burning
software, or go to their site and order/download it..

=======================
There are also FREE burner programs on the net he can download. Deepburn is
a popular one. Any of the freeware Newsgroups can recommend several.
