DVDRW won't format!

[Darcourt]

So I'm trying to burn a copy of vista to a dvdrw so I can reinstall my OS. I bought a brand new dvdrw and ive got the iso downloaded but when I try to write it onto the dvd I get this error. I've updated my firmware, ive tried using power iso, magic iso, nero etc...nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? I've got a dell inspiron 1720.

If you really must use a DVD+RW (rather than DVD-R or DVD+R), try some different ones that don't use the 'RITEK-008-00' dye.
