fleshfly Posted Monday at 07:50 PM Posted Monday at 07:50 PM hey, im new to all of this. trying to burn onto a dvd-r we've had for several years, maybe a decade. its never been used, should be available to burn. should have enough space too, the default 4.7gb. except it clearly doesnt, or wont read as having space. windows is reading it as 0 bytes used, 0 bytes free in properties. its empty in windows explorer. i even got nero infotool to double check, it reads the disk as 0 gb capacity, with blank capacity as "n/a". something i noticed is windows reads it as dvd-rw in properties, but its a dvd-r. trying to burn the video i want, of course, gives me an error as theres no free space at all & its going 14071% over the available capacity. whats going on here? i tried uninstalling and reinstalling my laptop's dvd drive (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GUD0N) & i reset my bios settings to default, in case there was a bios setting getting in the way/blocking my OS from reading the disc properly. heres my imgburn log after calculating my file/image size. I 14:45:32 Operation Started! I 14:45:32 Building Image Tree... I 14:45:32 Checking Directory Depth... I 14:45:32 Calculating Totals... I 14:45:32 Preparing Image...
