Help needed with CD-RW drive

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me out.

I can't seem to burn CD-R/CD-RW's on my CD-RW anymore.
I use Windows Media Player, it worked fine before. After it's done converting the files, this message comes up -

I've tried the following:
Different brand of CD-R or CD-RW discs:
Quit programs.
Selected a slower recording speed

But still no success, I haven't bought a CD cleaning kit yet, though. Could that be part of the problem? I've looked everywhere for help.

Thanks.

 

make sure your not trying to burn a cd at to high a speed if the cd is made for example 16x. i found when i tried burning at 42 on a 16x max. it wouldnt work till i slowed it down. also mebbe make sure u have the newest windows media player and that your songs are all the same format. if all else fails. go get nero 6!!

 

My CD-RW drive's speed is 48x. CD-R disc [TDK] doesn't even say much, just says '80MIN' on the case. It worked before on the same CD-R disc [TDK], now it doesn't. I downloaded WMP 10, I get the same message and all my music files are mp3's. Nero 6 I would get, but the file's too big to download. It would take forever on dialup.

 

you said u tried lower speeds. if you havent yet trying burning at around 4x. something very slow if the problem occurs still if u have unlimited minuits on dialup just download it while yer asleep . also u could try other programs like sonic or clone which seem to be drastically smaller. besides that. per haps different versions of windows media player ex: if you have the latest version atm get something older. (worth a shot)
