Pioneer AO6 unable to read discs?

[firehouse16]

My brand new Pioneer AO6 is unable to read any discs I've burned. I hadn't used it in a few days then I went to use a disc I had burned and it won't read it or any I've burned, but it used too, yet it recognizes store bought cd's fine.

I've been doing some PC work could I have tweaked something?

Thanks,
Dave

No, it's any type of CDR I put in there. It's not reading discs it's read multiple times already in the past 2 weeks. It makes no sense!

I did to guys But it resolved the problem by Upgrading the Firmware to 1.07..
Working like a charm...

Strange Though

I got the latest firware installed. It plays store bought cd/dvd's, dvd-r's but not cdr's. Yest it did last week. Is there maybe a setting somehwere, something I'm overlooking?

What CDR media are you Using

 

[firehouse16]

TDK, Taiyo Yuden, Mitsumi, Maxell. You name it I've tried it. These aren't discs I haven't used over and over without problems. They all work on my other machine. It's not media related, it's something hardware or software.

Here's another curve ball. I tried using CDindentifier to see if it could access the disc. Well I tried several discs and it reads them and identified them correctly. So I'm LOST now.

This is bizarre!

moved to a much proper rubric;

What disc format are your unreadable burned CD-R's?
Data (ISO), Data (UDF), Audio, VCD or SVCD? Written in "Track At Once", "Disc At Once" or "Packet Writing" mode?

I've tried all of the above. For some reason Win2K won't read anything to do with a CDR of any sort.

Here's another twist. I placed the drive into another PC and it works fine. So what would keep a Win2K from reading a CDR where the drive and media are both fine?

Well I got it fixed. It was Media Player 9. I uninstalled it and Nero and played around with both and everytime I installed WMP9 I couldn't read CDR's. You reading this Microsost? Nice glitche!
