Solve : CD Rewritable will not recognice disk?

1.	Solve : CD Rewritable will not recognice disk?
Answer» Obtained used computer with LITE-ON LTR-522465 CD-ROM rewritable and can proceed to point of naming disk on which to write then get message to insert a disk. Have tried several CD and CD-RW of differing BRANDS without success. The drive will read prior records from my old PC. Both running updated Windows XP w/Service Pk 3. I've TAKEN the drive out and installed it in old PC and it both writes and reads fine. Have tried some "suggested fixes" which resulted in no change in this drive plus modified the computer so as to not recognize EITHER flash drive or floppy disk insert. Reinstalled the XP-Pro OS and now those media storages works but still the CD write feature still does not recognize that a disk has already been inserted. Searched forum for possible answers without success and seek ideas. If this is posted somewhere please advise.How old is this drive ? ? They don't build 'em like they used to...
