Solve : Can't burn CDs?

Answer»

I am having a really ANNOYING problem. I have an eMachines T2824 that is under a year old, and I can't burn CDs. Music or data. I can't get the Windows XP burning to work, the Windows Media Player burning to work, or iTunes to work. They all give me an error half way through and eject the CD, and the CD is unusable after that. I have tried every possible CD burning speed and nothing works. I tried installing the CD burning patch, but I couldn't because it said I have SP1. What can I do?  

                       -JohnOh yeah. The computer has a 2.53GHz INTEL Celeron, 256MB or RAM and a 40GB hard drive.try using any other software for example...nero expresswhat's the error?In iTunes the error is "unknown" and in Windows it just says that there was an error. Not very descriptive.Here is exactly what happens:
It burns the files perfectly fine, but when it gets almost done finishing the disc, it sits for about five minutes and then says "An error occurred"   . Has this ever happened to anyone? Quote

try using any other software for example...nero express


Why dont you try doing this. Or try a DIFFRENT brand of cdrom.I had a cd burner that did something like that and I reinstalled the drivers and it worked for a while. I don't know if this helps but it's worth a shot.I'll try the drivers. As for Nero Express is it free? Thanks

Load SP2?

I reinstalled the drivers and it seems to be working. I had to burn at 4x, THOUGH.
