DVD-RW won't detect a writable DVD-RW



For some reason, my DVD-RW drive(s) (I've bought more since this started to
happen) will no longer detect writable DVDs or CDs. I installed a new
DVD-RW burner earlier, about 30 minutes ago actually, and when I inserted a
blank DVD-RW, the drive blinked several times and then just stayed lit. I'm
fairly certain that this is a Windows problem instead of a drive problem.
Can anyone help me with this?
