LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Can you see 2 physical optical drives in the machine? Otherwise, the one you've got there is just a DVD reader, it can't burn anything.
eSkRo Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 (edited) Right-Click on 'MY COMPUTER' select 'PROPERTIES' click on the 'HARDWARE' tab then click on 'Device Manager' what do you see under 'DVD/CD-Rom Drives'? Edited April 5, 2010 by eSkRo

Thanks I checked it out and you are correct. My new machine came with a DVD reader and it was supposed to come with a DVD reader and writer. I have contacted the company that sold me the computer and they are going to send me the correct part.
