right, well i just got and installed my new DVD-RAM (LG hl-dt-st DVDRAM GSA-4163B) tried using Windows own wizard, and it still asks you to insert a Writable CD... then tried a DVD with Nero and it worked fine. So, as long as i keep using Nero it should be fine... i'll let you know if theres any probs with this Drive.
Thanks very much for all the help, i may not have fixed the old drive - but i learned a lot, and know some stuff i could try for myself instead of asking. Thanks guys.

..Instead of asking ? .. isn't that a way to learn ? .. I'm sure that's what this site is about, besides getting stuff fixed

SORRY..I know...Im a lil late in this forum but I just joined here....The thing is that..I had this problem too...I have the same drive...But...I was able to figure out on my own...well..just for heads up...If the drive is not burning/ detecting empty cds then all u gotta do is go to my computer and right click on your drive and goto properties...then under recording tab...enable the checkbox saying "enable cd-burning on this drive" and select ur master HDD...TADA...u r done...This will work 100% ..Guaranteed..Chao

CD drive not detecting blank CDs: another failure mode and solution
I had this same issue and couldn't fix it with any of the above interventions; finally tried changing the HDD designated for temp files, in the CDROM drive properties window (as mentioned above, one can turn off/on CD writing by right-clicking on the drive letter in explorer).
I'm not sure why this caused the observed failure; could be that my C: drive is too full.
Hope this helps someone.

Welcome to Windrivers dillinger
You are probably right, if there is less than 15% space left on a drive, then it begins to start slowing down and acting up.
