gerces,
Whenever posting questions on these forums, please give us as much information as possible about your computer. Depending on your issue, we might need the operating system, processor speed, amount of RAM installed, brand name of the computer, (if there is one), and any EXACT error messages you are receiving, and in your case, we need the version of InCD you're using. How old is the CD-RW burner you're using? The more information you give us, the better informed our answer will be.
In the meantime, I have never had good results with Memorex. Have you tried a different brand of media?
Have you updated the CD writer program to the most current version. For example Roxio has version updates at their website AT THIS LINK.
Hope this helps and let us know.
Grif

I have gone to the updates and I believe I am up to date.I haven't bought any new CD-RW's yet.I thought with the update it may work but still no luck.Thanks for your help.
As Grif said, try another brand.
Other thoughts.
1. Read http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-7591-0.html?forumID=26&threadID=23462&messageID=254962
2. Update Nero from their website. Some packages need an update.
