Hmm, stopped by Staples today for something else and on a lark decided
to try Kodak brand of DVD+Rs. Kodak DVD+Rs are rated 16x whereas the
Staples brand of DVD-R which I had previously tried is rated for 8x. Lo and behold, I am now able to burn DVDs!
Never underestimate the power of the media... ;-)
Not sure why since: (1) I previously had a friend try my
DVD-multiburner in his TP running Win and the drive worked fine; (2) I
had also given the same person one of my Staples DVD which he tried and
found to work; and (3) my machine supposedly burns both DVD+R and DVD-R
disks and 8x ought to be fast enough.
But perhaps I am wrong about the ability to use DVD-Rs or the need for
speed with this burner?
There are many factors which come into play with different media/hardware/OS/apps. It's a mix; some will work fine in the drive under one OS and fail miserably under another. I have had OS/2 kernel revisions which completely hosed my ability to burn any media.
Glad you got something working, however. I tend to stick with Maxell or TDK media, FWIW; I've just had good luck with them. In my video burner, Staples media works just fine, so that's what I use in it.
