can't burn c.d

[spam]

i tried burning an audio c.d the way i always do but for some reason, i can't. I tried using Nero to burn but it doesn't work and says i have to insert a blank disk into the cd-rw drive. it was already blank but the message still popped up so i went and inserted about 20 different c.d's into the drive. i even tried using windows media to burn the music, used a different brand of c.ds, tried to burn different files, etc...but it doesnt work. anyone know what's wrong?

sounds like a drive problem not a software issue. unless of course you have recently installed something that you didn't mention and this problem started after that.
look in the device manager and see if there is a problem with the drive.
