Philomelius Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Hi guys. I have just bought some Philips DVD-R and they won't burn.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I've never heard of that burner personally but your only hope of burning those discs is to get a firmware update that makes the drive support them. To be honest you'd be better off trying to return them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philomelius Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 Thanks Lightning for this quick answer. your only hope of burning those discs is to get a firmware update that makes the drive support them. I went to Philips's site and the only update available is for... Windows 98. I'll call their tech support tomorrow and will try to have someone explain to me why a Philips burner cannot burn Philips discs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
