Ya, an unformatted DVD+RW works, thanks for your help.

Yes, even the NEC gui for binflash shows that the booktype for all of the DVD+R(W and DL too) are set as DVD-ROM

it responds to all commands in the NEC tab pulldown, changing to DVD-ROM when changed.

Nope, it still doesn't work. A log of erasing: I 17:29:09 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started! I 17:29:09 Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 3) I 17:29:09 Total Physical Memory: 1,046,620 KB - Available: 446,244 KB I 17:29:09 Initialising SPTI... I 17:29:09 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 17:29:11 Found 5 DVD-ROMs and 1 DVD

No matter what I do, I cannot change the book type of the DVD+RW I am burning into a DVD-ROM. I am using a NEC 3530A with Liggy's firmware. I have used almost every program possible to change the book type. I have burned the DVD (a Memorex) several times. No matter what I do, the book type is always DVD+RW. Also, the log says that it is burning in DVD-ROM, but when I check the DVD, it still shows up as DVD+RW.
