I had to do a recovery on my computer now both my burns only burn cd not dvd. its not the dvd/cdrom i put them in another computer and they worked fine any ideas. i think the dvd rom drivers were lost
Update your DVD drive and software for DVD drive. You should need to install a DVD writer which can write data on DVD. You also need to download a dvd burning software on your computer. You cannot just copy and paste the movies to the DVD discs. You could try Leawo DVD Creator which can support many input formats and you could even create 3D effect.
Hello Rfd832,
What I see from the description is that the drive is a combo drive. Combo drives are CD-RW and DVD-ROM drives means
CD-RW = Compact Disk-Read Write
DVD-ROM = Digital Versatile Disk - Read Only Memory
so these drives can read and write CDs but can only read DVDs (Cannot write or burn DVDs)
If you want to be able to burn DVDs then you need to have DVD RW drive (either DVD+RW or DVD-RW)
You said that you are able to burn DVDs on other computer so please check the label on the DVD drive.. it should be DVD-RW/DVD+RW drive
Hope that helps.. :)
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas
