Dvd/ cd recorder - player

I have two dvd/cd recorders in my Presario SR1500NX ... For sometime now I can't get them to operate correctly ... I can listen to music , watch movies but when I try to copy to disk from pc or homemade dvd I get from one E:\not accessible _ incorrect function or it goes through the motions of recording and after supposedly finishing the disk is empty but there is a " there are files waiting to be written to disk copied " ...

The second one sticks when I try to open it and or says there is no disk in the recorder and or gives me the same there re files written to disk .... HELP !!!!!!
