InCD is packet-writing software...notoriously unreliable. Try just burning a regluar data CD with Nero.

If it still won't work, it's possible the burner has gone bad. What you're experiencing is exactly what happened to a customer of mine. His CD writer was only about a year old but nothing we tried got it to write to any kind of blank CD, although it did, and does, read CDs just fine. We replaced it and it worked, including using XP's built-in burning software.
