Disc drive playing tricks!!

Ok, the deal is that my disc drive is not recognising that I have put a blank disc in (so I can write data onto it obv). I have put in discs with photos/music on it and it's fine, but apparently doesnt believe I have put a blank disc in.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? I have tried numerous different blank discs but nadda.

First stop is trying running a cleaning CD in it, then try different burning software, failing that, could just be your cd drive is buggered.

I dont even get to use any burning software, even when I click on the (D drive in My computer it doesnt exist. I may pop out and buy a cleaning disc today, I just dont understand why it recognises discs with content on it and not blank ones
