well... since noones actually came up with any decent... solutions i thought i might chuck in my few words
- first of all, media shelf life isnt very long if its unburnt... - so you'd be best to ##### the manufacturing date of the CD-RW.
I've burnt to 1 MR Platinum CD-RW before and i'll have to say its not exactly a rw of choice! - my burner refused to burn it at over 4x!!
HP burners ... well theyre usually pretty good...
and your comment about 100's of cdr burning - well.. 100 cdrs on an hp 9100 series... are all of them burnt at top speed? (8x... if memory serves) if they are, then your writer should definately have life left in it.. but 100's of cdrs at 1x or 2x .. well.. it can be very taxing for a writer!
your best bet - ##### the shelf life of the media. if its old (over a few years manufacturing date) it might be deterriorated and no good.
also - i had a problem with cd burning and dual boot systems - i found win98 wouldnt burn when linux or win95 were on another partition (for some strange reason)
