Does my DVD drive not write?

It does write, but only to the + (plus) format DVD discs.

 

Also check the drives firmware is up-to-date as new versions fix issues with certain media and allow the drive to support newer types of media.

I had the same problem with my first dvd writer. I had just bought a DVD+RW (which I didn't know at the time) and bought the cheapest dvds I could find (DVD-R 5 pack). Permission to start laughing: granted. . Now the DVD laser is gone, so it can only write CD-R/RW now. Permission to start laughing: denied.
