Will keep trying.maybe try another software.

Use quality CD-R's, no-names maybe incompatible. And CD-R's are real cheap anyway. Still search for a firmware for your writer. It may increase compatibility (if there is one around).

Hi flogit. The best burner I've found is NTI Media Maker 9. It can be downloaded from Download NTI Media Maker 9 Ultimate Free Update, CD DVD burning software, video editing, playback | formerly NTI CD & DVD Maker and used freely, or on a trial basis, or purchased for about $12 CAD. It's never let me down and I've used previous versions going back about 14 years or so.

Try to get your hands on Taiyo Yuden blank discs.
As of several years ago, there were a very few retail brand names whose discs were in fact made by Taiyo Yuden, but I have not kept up with that in recent years because I don't burn much anymore.
Taiyo Yuden discs are not sold under that name in retail stores as far as I know, but they are easily found online.
The last I checked, they were the highest quality discs out there and the least likely to have issues, although any brand can have issues with certain players.

It is now JVC/Taiyo Yuden discs. That is what I use in my recording studio but there are others that should work.
Avoid the "no names" and avoid Memorex as they tend to be iffy. Verbatim is generally good grade discs.
You only need "Data" CD-R's. You don't need the more expensive "music" CD-R's.

You're very welcome flogit. I know how confusing tech stuff can be. I'm not sure to what user issue you refer, but when you first click on the program after the free download, a "yes"/"no" screen will pop up. Click "no" which will direct you to the basic version of the program. Hovering your mouse over the top icons will display the functions available to you. The ones available are highlit in blue. The ones that aren't are greyed out. If the ones available suit your purposes, you can keep using the program freely. The "yes"/"no" screen will pop up every time, but so what if the basics give you what you need. If you want more than the basics, try the trial version, or just pick it up for the price requested. In my opinion, it's easily worth twice that.
P.S. When using any of program's functions, take a moment to study the methods provided to accomplish your goal rather than making mistakes by diving right in. Taking that moment will demonstrate that the methods are pretty much self-explanatory and easy to work with. You may find that any previous experience you've had with other programs (such as "drag and drop" for example) will also work with this one.
Hope this covers your concerns.
Cheers,
JL.
