have a Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-R1002 that wont burn CDRWs, it used to!

It burns CDRs perfectly but when I burn a CDRW my burning software, Easy CDCreator 5 Platinum, seems to be doing the business and actually reports asuccessful burn but the CDRW does not contain anything.

Looking at the CDRW there is not a mark on it (when it used to work there was a burn trace, not as pronounced as a CDR trace), the CDRs it burns work well and have quite a visible trace area - you can see where it has burnt the media but not a mark on the CDRWs. I am using Windows2000, the drive can read CD & DVDs fine, 'home made' or factory items. I have tried (at 1X, 2X & 4X speed) HP CD-RW C4438A Multiread compatible, 1X 2X 4X write speed 650 MB Media and Verbatim DataLifePlus2X - 4X write speed 700MB Media at 1X 2X & 4X.
