Cynthia Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Hi and welcome to the forum, mellogolfer! Switch to Write mode and press the button. Then select the option you want. If the +RW/BD media has not been previously formatted or is in the need for a full erase the 'Quick' option is disabled. A proper erased/formatted +RW media can then just be overwritten the next time you write to it without the need to first do an erase. -RW media always needs at least a quick erase before a new writing.

mellogolfer Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Basically the erase is the formatter??? Hi and welcome to the forum, mellogolfer! Switch to Write mode and press the button.

mellogolfer Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Another note.....img burn states that it cannot read the TOC......does this mean the rw dvd has been finalized at some point and cannot be formatted or erased ever again?

dontasciime Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 No, it means there is a problem with the disc, your drive, or its poor media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
