650mb CD's

[keith smith]

Okay thanks.
   
  This is a burner from early 2000 and runs at 8x.  I've had this and another older computer in a box for several years and while they are amd500 units they are like new.
   
  I seem to recall that the newer CD's would not burn in the older CD drives.  
   
  Is it correct that I need to use 8x CD's or something close?
   
  I don't burn alot of CD's.  I still have about 30 blanks of the original 100 I bought 6 years ago.
   
  Thanks for your response in advance.

Have you tried over-burning? I don't know if it's been six years, but 
older 
burners I've used support over-burning.
