  3. its ok now thanks, got everything sorted, the final hurdle was that the burner wasnt recognising that the disc i inserted was a dvd+rw. it kept saying i had a dvd-rw. So i set about changing the book type via the burners' support website. thanks anyway
  4. ok, thanks for all your efforts! its been a long day!
  5. just thought i would start a new topic coz the last one was getting too long! hey lightning uk, i got some new discs but they are dvd+rw's but the info on the right hand side is still saying dvd-rw's, please help!

  7. i have just noticed the "dvd-rw" on your quote, but i dont own any dvd-rw's! my girlfriend is coming home from work and she is gonna pick me up some new ones. i'll give those a whirl!!
  8. right, that has brought the drive status back onto nero, but im still having the same problems with the writing and erasing of the dvd+rw's!
  9. yeah, it does show up in imgburn, i will still try a reboot. i will try anything at the moment its really starting to p*** me off!
  10. i have another problem, when i go into nero toolkit/nero drive speed, on the drop down list of the available drives, my dvd drive is no longer there!! its still there on the 'my computer' screen. also when go into nero toolkit/drive speed. it comes up with an error when i try to run that too.!!!
  11. my discs are re-writable, i have Dvd+rw. arent they the right ones?
  12. when you say "RW's" you do mean cd's? i know it maybe sounds a silly question but i am a novice! i have actually tried more than one and it happens everytime.
  13. wait a moment tho, it wont let me erase the disc! this is the log: I 14:11:58 Operation Started! I 14:11:58 Device: [1:1:0] DVDRW IDE1008 0159 (E:) (ATA) I 14:11:58 Media Type: DVD-RW I 14:11:58 Quick Erase: No I 14:11:58 Erasing Disc...

  15. yeah, i went ahead with the burn process a couple of times and it only got to about 22% then stopped. just got my new firmare installed, gonna have a another go at a full erase.

  19. but that didnt work either!
  20. What is the file ext. of this file? Eg. .iso .bin .txt etc. And how did you create it? what software did you use? hi, i used dvd shrink 3.2 and its an .MDS file. the problem i think i have is when i format the disk through imgburn, it finishes formatting then when i go to burn it, it pops up and tells me there is almost no space available on the disk, i think thats where the main problem is. All i am doing is testing out this software with a short film. when i tried again last night, in dvd shrink, instead of having the compression setting at automatic, i set it at custom, so i shrunk the file even lower, so the had to be enough space on a totally empty disk.
  21. although when i find the file by going through C:/ local disc and i open the folder there are about 5 files?
  22. When i go to 'browse' for the source file there is just one file i think,
  23. just checked again and its 4442
  24. hi, i think the movie is about 4476, So do i need some different sorts off blank dvdrw's??
  25. hi, im pretty new to this so go steady on me! Just got imgburn downloaded and im having a problem with my disc formatting. I have a btc 8x dvdrw ide 1008 burner. when i place a new datawrite dvd+rw disc in the drive, imgburn says i need to format the blank disc, which i then do. The format completes but when i go to start the burn it says "i may not have enough space a my disc, do i want to carry on anyway?" The blank discs are 4.7Gb and im pretty sure the film isnt bigger than that! Any suggestions? Thanks, Carl
