format every disc

[Sport77]

Every time I try to use IMGBURN ever since Thanksgiving, it tells me I have to format a blank disc. Anyone else have this problem. I have been using IMGBURN for approx. 2 yrs now, and now this. I have updated, and it still happens. Any ideas??

Formatting a new DVD+RW disc is normal, that's just how they work.

 

If that doesn't explain what you're seeing, please tell us more about the problem.

Thank You for responding to my question, even though formatting is normal. Let my go futher, it will format, but that is all. It will not write-burn. And it did not do this until just after Thanksgiving of 2012. I am also not a computer whiz by any means, so I am sorry if this sounds stupid. It either needs to be formatted, or it tells me that i need a dual layer disc. But mainly, it has to format, then does nothing.   Thank You

If it's telling you that you need to write to a double layer disc, what you're attempting to burn must be too big to fit on a single layer one.

 

As for formatting and then doing nothing, I guess some sort of error occurred. You'd have to show me the log from when that happens.
