Richo 7125 is not recognizing inserted disks

[H]

Hi,
When I insert a new blank disk the burner light goes off after 2 secs and it does not recgonize a disk, as if it was empty.
CAn I force it to recognize that I inserted a disk?
I'm using XP pro system :-?

try to software-eject by right clicking the drive and clicking eject. Sometimes this is what it takes to make the OS refresh the disc contents and see that it's blank.

Welcome to CDRLabs, H!

I have a few questions which will help me understand your problem better.

1. Will your recording software recognize that a disc is inserted?

2. What recording software do you have?

3. Did this problem occur suddenly, or did it gradually become more of a problem?

4. Have you tried more than 1 brand of media? What brand(s) have you tried?
