Philips DVD+RW SDVD8820 does not recognise burned CD or DVDs

Dear Pros,

I have Dell Inspiron E1405 with WInXP SP2 and my DVD RW drive is philips DVD+RW SDVD8820.

When I insert original DVDs or burned data CDs I dont have problem viewing the files in them, but when I insert any different region movie DVDs and also burned movies on a CD -R the drive does not recognise the CD. When I click on the DVD drive in my computer, it opens a window showing the E: drive but its all blank.

I appreciate your help as I also have a Dell Inspiron with the similar problem and unable to find the solution on Dell support forums aswell.

Cheers
Sim

It could be upper and lower filters in registry and system files, use a removal tool called filtercheck 4.6 in CDR-zone.com (goto the forums and search for filtercheck)
after you downoad, run it, click yes to all filters found to remove. close program.

reinstall your preferred burning app (1 prog installed at a time and test burn)
this is to replace the filter entry that was corrupt

Have a dell inspiron cd-rw/dvd drive combo but it does not burn dvd only cd
Your drive is not a DVD burner. The way you can tell is that it is called a CD-RW/DVD drive, not a CD-RW/DVD-RW drive.

My computer wont recognise my dvd burner but it will read and play dvds just wont burn them and when i try a new dvd burning tool it cant fint my burner
Is your DVD drive a Combo DVD ROM and CD Read/writer? If so it cannot burn DVD only reads DVDs and read and burn CDs.
If the program cannot find a DVD burner then either the burning software cannot support that model DVD burner ot the DVD burner is faulty.
To test the DVD burner, remove it and install it into another computer to test the burner to see if is faulty.

Would like to upgrade Dell Inspiron 1300 c.d drive
Is your dvd rom drive a RW drive? if not, you need to buy a RW-dvd rom drive to be able to RW dvds or cds.

If you already have a RW DVD Rom drive, you need to have a burning application (ex. nero burning rom). You can check on the internet and download a freeware and install it on your machine.
