My ultimate goal is to be able to burn a CD that my XBOX will be able to recognize as a music CD and play it.

For what ever reason the XBOX does not recognize most CR-Rs so I purchased some memorex CD-RWs to see if those work.

No luck either, but I am beginning to think that it is more so my CD-burner or the program that I am using to burn the disc's. The last disc I burned on a CD-RW using music match wouldn't even play in my home CD-player and skipped like mad in my Car CD player.

I am thinking that the drivers in my CD burner may be out of whack, so to confirm this I want to use the best burning software.

What I am looking for is a program that is known to burn disc's that will play in most every CD Player out there. Cars, home theaters even xboxs?

If this program can't burn a disc that my home CD can't play... then it has to be drives drivers.

How do you update your drives drivers?

I have recently tried using Music Match 7.5, Nero 6.0 and even windows media player. All with little to no success.


Edit:

My Drive is listed on my device manager as :

LG CD-RW CED-8102B

and my driver is

microsoft driver
5.1.2535.0


Hmm.

Nothing wrong with the drive on your PC or the disks you're using. Newer Xbox's simply don't allow you to play CD-R's (in most cases anyway). The first few builds did, but later models don't. Aside from putting a new drive in your Xbox there's nothing you can do.

Well I still should be able to burn a CD that will be able to play in my home stereo or in my car.

My XBOX is 2 years old , and I was under the impression that CD-RWs were often successfully.
