20 Most Recent Memorex (32025618) 25 Pack 16x DVD+R Storage Media Questions & Answers

As from your question I can say that you are only using windows default copying service. First of all you must try copying the data using some third party softwares such as Ashampoo or Nero. You can try to burn a CD/DVD image with it or simply try to write data using these softwares. Dell has been suspected of having this problem in few cases, so DVD RW drive might also be faulty. Also, there is this microsoft page which can be useful: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=316529

Check you have a DVD writer in the computer. Perhaps it is only a CD writer?

Compact disks are too smalll to back up a computer, as your computers hard drive contains gigabytes of info and a cd is only 800mb at best. DVDs are more suited. First, you want to make a disk image of your hard drive, then back that up to another drive, ideally an external drive solely intended for back up with nothing more on it than the application used to execute the back up. Backing up to optical disks has never been considered a valid form of back up. Hope this helps.

Some DVD players cannot play certain types of disks mainly -R discs. Check compatability in the DVD player's manual. Try using +R discs for peace of mind...

Try using another program. MiniTool Partition Wizard works very well.

at the command prompt type chkdsk X: /f /r where X is pen drive.If it doesn't work download the recovery tool here http://freeware-fix.blogspot.com/2013/04/usb-drive-is-unreadable.htm

It needs to be aligned at a video shop.

Easiest thing is to re-format it from Properties

LLFTOOL is a utility for low-level disk drive formatting,
also supports formatting of FLASH cards using a card-reader.


1. Download this tool:

2. Format memory card

(WARNING: After running this low level format tool,
the whole USB flash disk surface will be fully erased.
Therefore, data restoration will be impossible after using this utility!)

You can format it for solve this problem.

If it is write-protected, then it is a CD-R or DVD-writable that has been written on -- once written, you cannot "format" it, nor "erase" any files.
Such is the "design" of "write-once" disks.

If it is a CD-RW or a DVD-RW, then you can "erase" the disk, because it has been designed to be "rewritable".

If you are good wih a fine tipped soldering oron or know a person who is then there is a slim chance you can repair it.

But be prepared for the worst.

Been there...

I'm sure you have tried, but have you cleaned your optics lately?
Using a Q-tip and a small amount of rubbing alcohol, and GENTLY rotate the swab across the lens, rotating it in the opposite direction you are wiping. This should "lift" any dust or grime from the lens. I would also clean the tray with a soft lint-free cloth (using an air-can just moves the dirt around, doesn't solve the problem)


Hope this helps!

It depends on your skill level as to if it can be fixed or not. The data is most likely still safely stored on the flash chip inside the drive casing. However, the USB connector has been just ripped off. If you have any experience soldering it would be as simple as getting a replacement usb plug from an electronics store or cutting a cable you have and then soldering the USB connector back to the flash drive inside the casing. This is something than can be done at home or possible by a repair shop that does any type of soldering work(tv, radios, ect) Most computer repair shops will look at you silly if you ask them to solder a thumb drive back to life. I would not expect more than to be able to mount your drive and copy the data. Odds are after you cut it out of the casing it will never go back in correctly.

Good Luck

nope get a new one

You inset a blank tape.

Tune the VCR to the channel or input source you desire to record.

Press the "REC" or "RECORD" button on the front panel or remote control. Everything should work out ok.

If you still have problems getting a source to your VCR, check the input cables and/or channel automatic programming freatures on the VCR.
