... of empty CDs / CD-R/RW
- If you are using CD-RWs:Please note that not every CD Writer can write on CD-RWs.
- If you are using a TEAC CDR55S, then you should download the newest Firmware .
- If you are using a Philips CDD2600 or an HP 4020, then the well-known grease problem is probably the cause.
- If you use Nero in Windows NT with at least SP3 and Nero is either 3.0.2.9 or older, then please update to a newer Nero version.
- If you are using an SIS chipset, e.g. the SIS 5591 then it is possible that the busmaster driver does not recognize the CD inserted correctly. With the driver version <siside.mpd> Ver. 1.53c.00 the problem appears to have been solved.
If not, see How do you deinstall a busmaster driver?.
- Some types of CD Writer have difficulties writing on CD-R, whose 'Disc Application Code' is set at 'Consumer Audio applications only'. These are special audio CDs. Please change to a different make of CD-R.
- If you use an 80 minute CD-R/RW, then some CD Writer have problems with it. For some CD burners this can be solved through a firmware update:
Mitsumi 2600TE, Mitsumi 2801TE, Mitsumi 4801TE
. For these CD burners, update to the respective newest firmware .
