Every time I try to burn a CD it all appears to be ok and at the end of burning(no matter what program I use) says completed successfully... But there's no media on the discs, why?

Some things you can try:

If you recently installed some burning software, uninstall it.
Use the fix given on this Microsoft page.
Use a different brand of CD/DVD.
Clean the laser using one of those drive cleaning kits.
Open the Device Manager (Start > Run > type "devmgmt.msc"). Locate the CD/DVD drive, right click on it and select "Uninstall". After it has uninstalled reboot the computer (it will be automatically reinstalled).

_{The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who haven't got it.
