No CD or DVD burner detected...

[Guest]

My Matshita DVD-RAM drive is no longer reading as a burner, only as a reading
drive. None of my burning programs registers it...Windows media player,
nero, or Recordnow!I can play a cd...but I cannot burn a cd or a dvd

Does it write dvd ram discs. What happens if you copy files over to the
drive in explorer. Burning programs dont see pure dvd ram drives. Is it a
mult burn drive. Does it burn more than one type of disc. Also try this,
don't know if it will help.

You might try uninstalling Recordnow in favor of Nero or your choice, having
two burning apps installed can cause problems...
