Unable to erase DVD+RW


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I recently wrote some files to my Maxell DVD+RW and an old Memorex DVD+RW, but now I'm unable to erase the DVDs. When I use ImgBurn to erase the disc, it states that the erase was successful, but then the actual description of the disc states that the disc is not empty. I have tried erasing it with Nero 9, but the option to give it a full format is greyed out, therefore, I am unable to erase the disc. Also, both my DVD drives have the ability to read and write to DVD+RW and DVD-RW. (Info gathered from Nero's Infotool)

 

Does anyone have a solution to this problem? I've been researching for the past 2 hours, but I haven't been able to come up with anything that works.

 

Thanks in advance!!

So both full and quick erase fail to erase it?

 

Post the logs from both operations please.
