Hi and good day/night to ya...
This can be a number of problems as you may or may not know. Could be your drive is on its way out dont worry as you need to tell us stuff like.
Your OS...XP ,98 etc.
Burning aid software installed alone with any packet type programs, and has this just started after you have uninstalled something?
But run these checks here http://www.dvdrbase.com/showthread.php?t=32137.

Is AIN turned off? Toy with it a little (on/off- requires reboot), and see what happens.
Also, before doing that, try opening and closing your drive through software commands, and not by the eject/load drive button.
