Have not tried other blanks but will invest in a different brand DVD. What's the difference between a DVD-RW and a DVD+RW ? Could this be the problem ?

I have saved an ISO file of home movies that I'm trying to burn to DVD. Destination drive is [5:0:0] TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H652L (E:) I get this message when I click the VERIFY button... "Device Not Ready (Medium Not Present - Tray Closed) I thought maybe the DVD was damaged - but have tried every disc in the 5 pack - to no avail. Using Memorex DVD-RW 4.7GB. Just to test the DVD/CD drive I put a clean CD in the drive then clicked on VERIFY ... the drive recognized that the disc was a CD. Is it possible the disc drive doesn't recognize the DVD's? Do they need to be foormatted ? This is what is written on the door of the E drive : DVD multi recordable R DL RW DVD + R DL Burn Log: I 19:15:39 ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 started!
