Please help!!! My Cd-RW Drive won't read blank CD-R or CD-RW discs.
Someone please help me, I'm not very good at all this!
Even though My CD-RW Drive is (according to my computer) fully functional, It won't acknowledge any blank CD_R or CD-RW discs.
I have Windows 98 2nd Ed, and I use Nero and InCD. I have previously uninstalled older versions of both Nero and InCD and reinstalled updates. This seems to have taken any other problems away except this one. When I go to write to a disc, I get a message saying 'There is no disk in Drive E. Insert a disk and then try again.' But there is already a disk in it.
I'm not sure what other info to give you except that it starts trying to read the disk, but doesn't find it.
I've also tried cleaning it, but to no effect.
The CD-RW is acer 20x10x40
Help me, please. It's driving me to distraction!! I would be sooo grateful...

NooNoo,
Thanks for your advice, I did exactly as you suggested, but it still won't read the disks. It isn't making a particularly healthy noise either?!
Could it be the laser? and if So, what should I do?
Your help is much appreciated.
