Suddenly, my Plextor 8X4X32 burner won't read or write discs, although a few weeks ago, it worked fine. The burner is recognized in Windows and when a disc is inserted, it spins it and the system seems like it's trying to recognize it, but then it stops spinning and nothing happens. If I try to burn a disc using either Clone CD or Plextor Manager's Disc Dupe, I keep getting a message saying, "Insert CD". I don't know what I could have done to mess it up. I've looked thru the Device Manager's settings, but can't find anything wrong. I've even tried different settings (making sure if they didn't work, to return to the previous settings) but that didn't work either. I've read the troubleshooting sections of the Plextor manuals, but that didn't help either. The drive is installed on the secondary IDE connection along with my Pioneer DVD drive. They are jumpered according to the manual with the Plextor as master and the Pioneer as slave. That shouldn't be the problem because, as I said, a few weeks ago everything was working fine. Anybody have any clues?
