Recently i needed a burner and i didnt have much money so i bought a cheap Micro Advantage Cd-RW drive. It worked great for a while, it would read and burn. Then when i tried to burn a cd or cd-rw it would go through the entire burning process. I would then take the cd and try it but it would be completly empty. I would then put back in the drive to reburn and it would either say that it was empty or full, either one. It will now read cd-rws and thats all. I am currently using an older drive thats veeery slow. I tried nero and roxio but neither works. thanks for the help.
