Why Does iTunes Keep Having Problems Burning CDs?!
I’ve used iTunes for years now. I’ve burned CDs in the past on my desktop computer using iTunes before. I’ve had to tweak iTunes’ files to recognize my CD/DVD burner to get it to work, but I’ve done it. I know it’s worked before.
I updated to iTunes v7.3.0.54 recently. I tried to burn an audiobook to a CD a little while ago. I was told, “Disc burner or software not found…”
I ran diagnostics on the CD/DVD burner. It yielded:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
System manufacturer System name
iTunes 7.3.0.54
CD Driver 2.0.6.1
CD Driver DLL 2.0.6.2

UpperFilters: GEARAspiWDM (2.0.6.1), InCDPass (4.3.0.5),

Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

Virtual drives can sometimes interfere with reading and writing CDs in iTunes. If this is a virtual drive and you are having problems with other drives, try uninstalling the virtual CD application.

Writing CD text is turned on in the preferences. If you’re having problems burning CDs, try turning this preference off.
I have no virtual drives. I’d love to follow Apple’s advice and turn off text writing if they would enable it!
This is seriously yanking my chain. Why does Apple mess up CD burning in iTunes each and every time I fix their mistake and make it possible to burn CDs?!

No, not fixed. Then again, too busy to investigate further.
