I got a new computer several months ago and, for no apparent reason, the DVD/CD burner no longer recognizes blank media. It recognizes rewritable cds only intermittantly (as long as they are not completely blank).

I had this problem with a previous computer (an iMac) as well, but was never able to figure out how to fix it. I reinstalled the drivers and removed some software I though might be causing the problem, but to no avail.

Anyone out there ever have this happen to them?

Thanks for any helpful advice.
