iTunes Thinks my Blank CD is a Blank DVD

I tried burning a music CD for the first time since installing iTunes on Windows 8 x64, even though windows tells me that the disc is a CD-R, iTunes pops up a message saying "You have inserted a blank DVD but originally selected a CD format. Are you sure you wish to create a data DVD instead?" I have rebooted, multiple times, uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, still the same problem.

Same problem. Just got a new Windows 8 machine and loaded iTunes 11.0.2.26 on the machine. After days of importing, syncing, etc... I can NOT burn a single CD. I am using CD-R and iTunes is reading them as data DVD's.



This is very frustrating. Anyone with a solution to the iTunes error?
