Ok there's nothing wrong with your hardware or media. You just have to understand a few principles.

1) Most hi-fi's etc cannot recognise CD-RW - they can only read CD-R's. You can however buy hi-fi that can recognise re-writables.

2) When you want to erase a disk you cannot just delete the files from Windows Explorer (unless you are using a Packet Writing software).
To erase the disk, start up Nero and click on the Recorder menu at the top at click erase CD-rewritable. A then do a quick format.
