I recently bought a new desktop running Windows Vista Home Premium. Mostly it is OK but I have one annoying recurring problem which I could use some help with.
I can insert a CD/DVD in the drive and all works as it should, then inserting the same disk at another time I get a message to the effect of "do you want to format this blank CD/DVD" when the disk is NOT blank. I can't the disk in Explorer (but I can if I use another computer). Last night this happened immediately after I burnt data to a CD, the CD is fine in any other computer but seen as "blank" in the one that made it.
I don't think I've altered any settings and not sure how to get the disk reliably recognized as containing data. I'm assuming Vista is the problem, of course I could be wrong, maybe it's the hardware/driver?
Any thoughts or suggestions gratefully received
