Cant Burn Anything Correctly!

[Rip The Jacker]

I don't get it. I have a 32/12/40X burner, and for some reason I can't burn anything without it coming out wrong! When I burn data, my CD-Rom can't open the files. When I burn audio, my CD Player can't read the CD. I've tried switching programs, Nero, RecordNow Max, CDRWin, CloneCD, no good. I tried burning slower, still nothing! Any ideas??

Clean the laser, or take it into a shop and have it cleaned, that might work.

? Does your cd-rom read normal (audio-)cds ?
It can be that it's only having problems with certain types of media.
Check also on the manufactorers site if you can do a flash-upgrade.

If you have XP, you probably need the patch for CD-Burning. Even after this my CD-RW is very sensitive to which CDRW's it uses. I can only use Verbatims CDs at the moment.

Also, I just realized, this problem started after I upgraded from Win98 to Win2000.
