If you use a 4X compatible DVD+RW and try to write on it using an LG DVD Writer (which supports 8x) would you have a problem? I had a problem. I think speeds are not compatible, so it fails to write or erase a DVD+RW. Maybe you can check what sort of DVD you are using, what speeds the disk can work on, because writing data at 8x speeds on a 4x compatible disk makes no sense.

There are a few issues with dvd burning and dvd burners. Firstly, the actual brabd of dvdr you use will be different with many dvd burners and with avd players too. I can play some burnt dvds on my player but not others, and some will play for me but not my friends player. Finding which brands work for your system (i find tdk dvd -R gold work on many sytems. They are about $40.00 for 50. Second, is the burning speed. You can try slowing it down in the burners menu. If the dvd will go throught the process then not copy, you may need to use an extra utility, ( post if you need links to these) such as anydvd or dvd 2 one. Some dvds are harder to burn than others. Lastly, if you have read errors, it could be the actual driver or the burner itself. Try unistalling it, reinstalling, try updated driver, or try cleaning the laser with a dvd cleaner laser disc (not a cd one!!!, ther are two different ones) good luck all.

I need a bit more input please. I need to know your computer specs, (operating system and ram especially), an exact copy of the error message you recieve, and the brand of dvd's you're using. (I'll assume you know you need a dvdr to burn a dvd).
Please supply this information and I will assist you all I can.

The format option is missing from my computer. I have tried to burn DVD's using Nero 6 and Nero 8 but this has failed, I don't know how to format the DVD in any other way, or if this is really necessary with Nero.

My HP Pavilion a430n combo DVD writer / CD-writer is not burning DVD's I tried to burn with 4 different DVD burn programs.

Comment by birddog55, posted on Jan 23, 2008

When I first installed the burner it worked fine. It burnt everything CD's,DVD's. Now ti only burns CD's, I looked in my device manager and it only shows that it is an CD-R / CD-RW burner. Do I need to install a new driver for this, or can I just unplug it from the mother board and plug it back in .

Thanks,

Sony 720UL DVD burning fails. I have Windows XP SP2 and have updated the firmware on the Sony drive. I've connected the drive another XP machine and also a PC running Vista and got the same results. I then connected a Mad Dog DVD Burner and used the same DVD+R that failed in the Sony drive and the burn was Successful. What's up with that? I was originally using Nero-6 then loaded Roxio-8 and the Sony drive still fails to write DVDs.
Any Suggestions?

i can't burn dvd

Comment by Guest, posted on Dec 11, 2007

I have an LG dvd burner, and it also stopped burning dvd's.

It can read CD's.
It can burn CD's.
It can read DVD's
But now it just can't burn DVD's

I completely reinstalled windows XP, after a complete erase of my hd. Completely reinstalled disk burning software, the Nero disc that came with the burner. I even tried about 3 other burning programs. Still nothing. When I take out the DVD I just tried to burn and put it back in to see what the computer can read of it, explorer stops responding and I have to do a control+alt+delete just to end the program just so I can remove the disk.

I've had the burner for about 2 years. However, I have burned many, many DVD's of a lot of high school football games I've video taped and other video work I've done. Still, I'd think a burner should last more than 2 years...?

I'm giving up, and just buying a different one, probably a different brand. LG website has nothing to be found as far as troubleshooting this type of problem. So my best possible guess is the burner is just dying. Just a guess as I'm not familiar with the mechanics involved, but I'm more than confident in saying it's a hardware problem.

I see it's been over a year since the original post, I guess I'm just writing this for the sake of other internet surfers who found this post as I did with the same kinds of problem.

I have an Asus dvd which doesn't burn. Every time I go through the Nero burning procedure it asks me to put a proper CD-R.
