CD burner only lets me burn 1 session?

I am running a crap (IMO) Iomega Predator USB 4x CDRW and Nero 5.5.4.0 here at work and when I create a disc as a multisession disc it works fine but when I go to add another session to it it tells me that I need to put in a good disk with room, I have room on the disk and I have set it to write multisession, these discs even do this on another machine with Easy CD Creator, so I am sure it closing the disc. Anyone have any suggestions or know anything about these burners besides the fact that they are slow and picky about the type CDRs?
 
Dunno, dude. Usually it is the burning software that determines whether the disk is open for another session, or closed.

To trouble shoot, you should start swapping around the variables and hardware.
 
I've had that happen, even when I select multisession. Didn't really figure out what caused it, and it doesn't happen every time.
 
Hmmm I thought when you closed a CD, it couldn't be burned any more.

Make sure you're using some good CDRs. Most people say Imation is really good.
 
I know the CDRs aren't the problem, because I have tried different ones. And they do burn OK it is just that after I burn something to them once I can't add anything to them even if it is a 1mb file.
 
My last two versions of Nero do the same. Adaptec's software does not have this problem on my CD burners.

Nero works fine for me at home, also I can't get Adaptec to run in XP and I'm not going to shell out all the $$ to upgrade to the new ver just to get XP support.
 
Same problem. One thing I never tried was removing the file that was already on the disk from the new burn. In other words, make sure there is nothing on the left hand side before adding a new file. Probably wants to burn the original one again plus your new file
