Alright, I'll go out and get some DVDs from one of those companies. Thanks for the help.

I maybe wrong, but the NEC's website lists it as a +/- R and +/-RW drive. I could have sworn I used -Rs before, but it could have been +Rs

I 12:57:21 ImgBurn Version 2.1.0.0 started! I 12:57:21 Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 2) I 12:57:21 Initialising SPTI... I 12:57:21 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 12:57:21 Found 1 DVD-ROM and 1 DVD?RW! I 12:57:29 Operation Started!

I have been using Imgburn for awhile and it seems after I got a new spindle of discs I was unable to burn DVD-Rs using any program on my computer. In Imgburn I get an error message saying E 12:32:11 Failed to Reserve Track! - Cannot Write Medium - Incompatible Format. My VHS to DVD copier works fine with these discs and I even went out and got another spindle of DVD-Rs made by a different company. Those didn't work so I flashed drive's firmware and its still not working. Am I just vitim of a bad batch of discs?
