I'm trying to write on a blank CD-R (Put ALL my Scratch projects and Scratch) and my computer isn't seeing the CD. When I click CD Drive it says put a CD in. But when I put another disc that has data on it it sees it.

maybe it's write-protected
do you have a USB pen drive?
or just put the scratch files on the disc that works and put the stuff on the disc in your documents

Ok check for this: Click explore, right-click on the CD drive and then click properties. In the recording section make sure the check box enable cd recording is checked.

Blade: This is a BLANK cd
Coka: It seems that all I have is:
1. General
2. AutoPlay
3. Hardware

hmm

Have you written any other discs with this drive? It could be that the drive is older and can not write discs. If your drive can not write discs flash drives are a cheap and easy way to go.

I've never used it for writing, this is my first time adding something to a disc, maybe I'll just ask my dad. But my comp can see CDs that do have stuff on it and I bet I could add stuff to those CDs.

It is probably an older disc drive; one that can play discs, but can not burn discs.

Well lemme see if I can get a file on a game CD.

coka · 2009-07-20 18:24:29

Well if it doesn't work you could try to get a flash drive They are pretty cheap and can hold quite a few files.

Well, access denied.. lol

coka · 2009-07-20 19:00:46

well just do what you want...

Magnie · 2009-07-20 19:44:27

Well, you might be right, it can't write. But thanks for your help, I'll ask my Dad to get another drive from another computer that doesn't work. (We have 6 or more computers set up, 1 at least that I no of that won't start up, so I could use that drive.)
