Page 1 of CD- CD Recording on LG DVD Recorder

A couple of months ago, I bought an LG GSA-4082B 8/4x DVD recorder drive for my computer, replacing my Plextor CD recorder. I`ve had no problems recording DVD- DVD with the new LG. It records perfectly in DVD mode from an original DVD to a recordable DVD.

However, I`ve now gone through goodness knows how many recordable CDs, trying to copy from CD to CD. I have both Easy CD Creator v5, and Nero, both of which have given rock solid recording with my Plextor recorder. Easy CD Creator doesn`t even recognise that a recordable disc is in the LG drive. Nero does, but reports an error recording at the end of the process. I`ve tried recording at slower and faster speeds- no difference!

I`ve even tried uninstalling ECDC v5, and replacing it with my older version- still doesn`t recognise it!


Don`t know the technicalities- the drive I purchased is advertised as a CD/ DVD burner. I can record plus or minus format DVDs from original DVDs (also into DVD RAM, although I haven`t tried that yet).

But, as described above, so far, absolutely no success in recording CD- CD. And that is my problem!

Any thoughts, anyone?
