What make and models of drives, please?  This could help resolve the 
issue quicker.

I can only agree that the drive cannot support the media.  Note, there 
is an issue with CD-RW's that I only learned about a few weeks ago and 
being able to be written/read in certain drives and this has to do 
with the speed of the drive.

For the cost of CD's, it isn't work the cost of CD-RW's anymore, 
except for test burns.
