How old is your drive? It is getting to be a couple of years old, and you burn alot of CD's, then it sounds like that it is ready to be retired and replaced.

The only option that I can think of other then replacing it is to see if there is an option in the burning program somewhere that states "perform laser calibration". If there is one, UNcheck it, normally the drive will do this automaticly before it starts recording.

But, I am almost sure that my first statement is the more correct one.... it is time to lay it to rest...
