I have a Sony DRU830A Burner. I am using XP home. My computer recognizes the recorder but whenever i insert a disc it keeps saying please insert disc into drive D. What do I need to do to correct this problem?

If it is reading Manufactured Disc's you may have incompatible Blank Media.

However if it isn't reading anything at all the most likely problem is the the Laser is either covered in Dirt or has Failed.

If you have already tried Cleaning the drive Optical Heads and have no improvement then replacing the drive may be your only option.
