If you are making "standard" audio CD-R's that will play on any audio CD player, DO NOT format the CD-R first, only use blank CD-R's. If you format the CD-R first and then try to make the audio CD it will give you the error noted.
If this is not the case, post back with more detailed info.

I have the same cd-writer and it has that problem with not recognizing cd-r disks as well. Dell's answer to the problem was that I should buy another brand and check the "high-speed" logo. I have owned 4 different burners and have never come across this problem before! Please let me know if you have a solution.
I'm having the same problem with the HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4481B drive not recognizing(detecting) blank CD-R disks in the drive when I insert them in to burn music CDs.
Have you solved the problem? If so could you explain how. Did you get Dell to replace the CD-rw/DVD combo drive?
