Hrmmm. Is this in a Compaq computer? That was the first thing my irc
buddies asked me about it.
They all seemed to think it more likely to be hardware than software, given
this is essentially a "no-name" burner.
Still, you might as well give some other stuff a shot just to make sure.
I'd suggest you try these:
Disc Juggler (free 1x version)

Nero:

CDRWIN (30 day 1x version - I've owned this for years)
http://www.goldenhawk.com/
You should be able to determine if you're going to be able to use 80 min
media with at least one of those. If none of them will recognize the media
you may have bad media or your hardware may just not support it (which seems
unlikely for an 8x burner, but who knows?).
