    What Operating System do you have ? Have you tried a different burning program? Does it work if you put a cd (not blank) into it?
     
  3. My Operating system is "Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 (build 2600)"
     
  4. yes it does work and what do you mean "different burning program?"

    Do a google for freeware burning download.

    Grab one of those. Just make sure it runs in XP. Load it up & try that program to see if it sees the blank cd.

    Never used the HP Burning program.
