CDR not burning

Sep 9, 2005 4:59AM PDT

CDR drive will read, but will not burn about 90% of the time. It gives me "target error" messages, or does not seem to detect the media. Using WinXP and Nero.
I have reinstalled drivers.

Note: If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem.

The age of the drive matters as well as what you've done to try to fix the issue.
