First thing Do you have the Roxio CD that which you could have recived along with the laptop?
If yes Great.. go to start>control Panel> Add/Remove Programs> uninstall everything which ever says sonic or roxio in the list you might have upto 5 to 6 or 7 in the list.. uninstall all of them one by one.. then restart the computer and install the CD completely the problem will solve..

If you dont have the CD..if you are in US call 8006249896 thats dell tech support number and tell them that you didnt recive a single cd along with the computer they will send you all the cds including you operating system..ask them to send the roxio cd also..

If you dont want to go through all of this just go www.filehippo.com and download the latest version of K-Lite Codec Pack under audio and video section in the main page..install it and then try to play the DVD using the same player or different player like media player or media player calssic which is very good..
You can access the Media player classic from start > all programs> K-lite Codec Pack> Media Player Classic open it and press Ctrl+D it will play your DVD

My CD/DVD drive won't read/play DVDs and it won't write DVDs either. It used to do this fine, but it doesn't anymore. It will still play and write CDs, but not DVDs. I have tried EVERYTHING to...

You probably will need to replace the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) in your laptop. Go to Google and search for "Dell Inspirion 6000 CD/DVD drive" to find a replacement.
To be sure it's the CD/DVD drive that's defective and not your operating system software, you could also try to boot from a boot-able DVD disk.

On my dell inspiron 5160, I can play cd & dvd, & record cd but can not record on blank dvd, Roxio says drive is empty and no space?? I have fixed graphics card and reinstalled xp, hope you can help...

Are you sure it is a DVD writer, the specs for this laptop has a number of different drives one of which is a DVD/CD combi drive meaning it can read and write CD's but only read/plays DVD's.
Check the drive fascia if it says DVD-rom then it only reads them.

Cant get roxio my dvd/le combo or roxiocreator plus to install

To install the software you must remove your cd/dvd drives. Physically from your computer. This is a common problem with this software. After installed plug your drives back in and you should be good to go.

DVD BURNER

Well, either your system doesn't notice the drive in the device manager or your drive is bad, look in the control panel under system/hardware to see if it sees the drive, if it does, remove the drive and reboot, let windows reinstall it, if that doesn't work you may need a new drive. Here's one I found on ebay cheap.
