HI, Ok last night i tried to burn a CD with music on it and it asked me if I wanted to burn as an audio CD or a Data CD so i clicked data as i wanted to add some other stuff later, it started the burn process but the progress bar did not move and then it said that something had gone wrong and that the CD could have been finalized ( which is incorrect as this CD was working fine in the morning and had never been finalized) so i tried again and it said exactly the same. After doing this i tried a new disk and it did exactly the same. I then rebooted the computer and tried again and it worked, but i was wondering if there was any way to get the use back in my two CD-RW.

with the cd in the drive, can you open up my computer, right click on the cd burner and choose format?
