(Not so) Strangely enough, the good disk is a Verbatim and the bad one is a Ritek. Not sure what that meant, BUT...the update to the Firmware made it work, at least for the moment. Appreciate the Help much. Thx.

I know that this question (semi) has been asked and from what I got the conclusion was bad media, which I am prepared to accept. Just wanted you Pros to take a look at this and make sure I'm not messing anything up. I bought a new 100 stack of DVD-Rs (memorx) which are not working. whereas I had Verbatium before DVD-R that did work. Any help would be appreciated. Thx much. This is the not working one, obviously.
