I have put an unused CD-R in my desktop drive and it is recognized as blank by Windows 7 Pro, which offers the choice to Burn a CD using Media Center. Whether i select this choice or close the window and follow the usual MC method, I keep getting the message "There is no disc." See:

I eject and reload the disc, click Refresh and still get the same message. I have tried different blank CDs and also tried using a Mac Superdrive, but keep getting the same result. The CDs are high quality Taiyo Yuden, which I regularly use in a Tascam CD dual drive copier for both live recording and copying with no problem.
I need to burn my Demo Playlist before I go to the RMAF show Thursday morning. Help!

Windows interfering? Or antivirus?
Can MC read a CD that's been burned?
Power off and back on?

Thanks Jim. I turned off anti-virus, but I also did something I hadn't tried before, which I suspect is what actually solved the problem. I had previously highlight the playlist above and it appeared in the large part of the MC window at right. Because I saw Demo PlayIist 1 in the action window, I had then clicked on Burn both in the action window and one other place (possibly the menu icon at upper left of action window, which I can't see now during the burn process). This time I had the intuition to also drag and drop Demo PlayIist 1 from the Playlist list above the action window. This step is what actually allowed the burn to begin. While I saw this as step 5 in the CD burning wiki article, I didn't do it because the action window already said Demo Playlist 1, which to me meant that the files were already there. It seems counter-intuitive to me to have the Playlist name there before the files are there.
