Samsung DVD +-R/RW wont read/burn blank cds anymore..

Okay i have a Samsung DVD+-R/RW and ive had it for over a year now. now all of a sudden in the mist of burnin a cd it gave an error(i forgot what it said) and now it wont even recognize blank cds. I've tried diff brands and CD-R/RW. ive always used the same brand anyway.

It reads real cds and dvds, it can also read burned dvds but it doesnt read burned cds anymore. i dont understand. if someone can help i would really appreciate it.

Does it read blank DVDs? What brands of CD-Rs? Are you using any packet-writing program, such as Roxio Drag-to-disc or Nero InCD. If so, I'd uninstall the packet-writing program and try the drive again.

Interesting because I have the SAME PROBLEM. Working fine then kap-putenzie. All maners of checking drive says working fine. Re-installing drivers doesn't work either. Must be someone out there who has had this problem and resolved it...UUUgghh..!!
