A couple of things stand out here. The optical drive (your DVD thingy) on the SATA port and your media. Lightning is the expert with these but I know there's been huge problems with them over the past couple of years. I think it best for him to field this one. Your media (even though it's Verbatim) can be a bit dodgy. Verbatim -R is great. +R/DL is great. +R is a bit dodgy. I've never had any luck with them myself. Pretty ordinary really. Grab some -Rs and see how you go. Thanx for the rapid reply, I will do that tomorrow and the pc is only 2 weeks old so if changing the discs dont work it will be back to the shop with it. Whoes lightning will he/she see my post? Thanx again, si
