You don't mention what device we're talking about. Blank media must SAY "CD Audio" on them.

Data is data. CD's can't tell what you put on them.

If you 'recorded' it on a CD music recorder it needs to be finalized first. CD-R's are Write Once Read Many. You can't delete from them after the fact. Refer to the manual for the creating machine.

parrottrack,
The problem can only be either a software or a hardware issue. First try the software as its most likely the problem. Download a good known virus free burning software; Express Burn has a good trial copy. If you make a CD with the new software and it works, it was the software, if it you have the same results then its a hardware issue. First try cleaning the players lens, if that does not work the player has failed.

Some cd players will not play cd-r! Unless it has played them before, there's nothing you can do about it.

I suggest you look at the file format that you are saving your songs as. It might be that you are saving them at too high a quailty than what you need. Have a look at the disc you have done see what the file is and it's size.

check with any other company rec disc,, the prob might be with the lens or the drive,have u installed the s/w for burning disc eg. Nero,open the disc with the nero

try changing the format of whatever it is. if it is a game, then try it on another xbox. if it works then its the xboxs fault. if the CD still doesnt work, then you might wanna get a different game. still if it isnt a game and its a mp3 or soemthing, then look for formats that the 360 supports

There are different grades of cd media. Maxwell is usually a pretty good grade. That said, there are a few things that could cause this. Your drive may be malfunctioning, this could be a bad batch of cd's, or the software you are using to burn disks us having issues with the device drives for the Drive.

The first and most easiest way to troubleshoot this is to try media from somewhere else. If you can use different media and you have no problems, then you have a bad batch of CDs. If it still malfunctions, then you have a bad drive or bad device drivers. You can delete your drive from the device manager and let windows reload it when you reboot. I doubt that i the problem takes little effort to test. Last, you may need to clean your drive. There are inexpensive CD drive cleaning disks available. If all that doesn't work, then you most likely have a bad drive and will have to replace it. Very simple to do. After replacing it, Windows will see it when you turn the power back on.
