Base from the description of your problem this issue can be related to your CD/DVD writer since you already tried using different burning software, can you tell us if you are receiving any error message when you try to burn something.
I also have this same problem with one of my CD/DVD writer that is can red any disc but cannot burn and the problem with it is the lens of the unit and the only thing you can do is to replace it.
this might be the burning software program you are using
there are many freeware burning programs on the net
what sort of cd disk are trying to burn ie: data media iso........
how many disks does this happen to ? ?
the cd's you have might be a bad batch!!!
can you burn dvd's ??
