Hello TrueBlue and Proud, I once had a fisher highfigh double cd player/burner that gave me that problem eather way. A few times, I couldn't burn cds on it because it had a derty lazer linse. But when I popped one of those linse cleaning kits in to it, it allowed me to not only play cds, I was also able to go back to coppying one cd to another cd wich is the real reason why I bot that machine in the first place. But try cleaning the lazer linse and see if your dvd drive will do what it's suppose to do. My best regards to you all. ----- Original Message ----- From: "TrueBlue & Proud" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
