I am assuming this is happening when you already have a CDR in the 
drive.  Have you tried adding the files to the CD before inserting a CDR 
and then go from there?  Also, you said Nero does this to you too?  It 
sounds more like your drive is having a problem recognizing blank CDRs 
than anything.

Yes in Nero, not sure in Windows.  Open Nero, click File, Preferences, 
Expert Features Tab, check "Do not eject the disc after the burn is 
complete."

Once you have named the CD, it is impossible to change this information 
unless you are using a rewritable disc.  Even using a rewritable disc, 
you may need to reformat/erase it in order to do this.
