Since I have installed XP everytime I try to write to a
CD it tells me I need to insert a writable cd. I bought
a new drive thinking my cdrw drive went bad. I installed
a new cdrw drive and I receive the same message when I
try to write to a disk. Everything else from both drives
work. They play music and I can install programs from
cd's. It just does not recognize it has a rewritable cd
in the drive when it does. I have tried several
different types of cd's too.

Help Please
 
He said he was trying to "write" his cdrw. As you probably know, write and
burn are sometimes used inter-changeably when referring to cdrw's. I took it
to mean attempted packet-writing was involved. As to the OP not seeing the
disk, the same happened to me a couple of years ago because I had not
formatted the disk.
