"Device not ready (Unable to Recover TOC)"

[REDDITOR_ENT]

I am new to using Imgburn and am trying to burn a .iso file onto a Fujifil DVD-r 4.7GB, however when I open up Imgburn I get this message "Device not ready (Unable to Recover TOC)". The error message appears almost as soon as I pop in the disk. Any help would be very appreciated, thanks.

Your drive can't burn DVDs, it can only read them.

So I'am going to assume the only way around this is to burn the .iso on another computer or buy a better drive?

Correct.
