Go into write mode with your disc in the drive and copy+ paste all of the disc info from the box on the right please.

That certainly doesn't look like an empty disc to me.

 

Seeing as it appears to be a CD-R, you obviously can't erase anything from it either. CD-R are 'WORM' (write once, read many) media and cannot be erased like how CD-RW media can.

 

Use a new, blank disc.

well damn, sorry for bothering you then
