Can't Burn Successful DVD-R's?

Try burning at a slower speed, it will give you better quality. My burner is always set to the lowest speed when I burn. I have had the same problem, thats how I know.

the problem is that you have several problems first the processer is too slow 900mhz is the minimal requirement. Second there the ram you need at lease 256 mb to opearate the drive with any degree of success. I don't believe it is possible to run a dvd-rw on the computer in question.

Save it as a movie (avi) file, and if your dvd can play avi files you should have solved the problem\n\nif your dvd cant play avi files, save it as mpeg and use a cd burning software to make a VCD that most dvd players can play.

You need to buy a burning program to burn DVD. Most players only do CDs. If there is any players that do CDs, I don't know about it. Tell me if you find out.

Most DVD writers will burn either and most DVD players will play either. I use +R but I have no real reason except they always work wherever I want them to.

try device manager and unistal it \nreboot and let windows find , this sometimes works\ngothe web site of your burning software and see if they have a upgrade for disc (i think its firmware)\ni know nero does and has helped me in the past

Check to see first if you have DVD burning software available on your system. If you do just follow the directions.

two different formats in dvd's. all modern dvd burners will work with both. the dvd-r works best with tv dvd players.

Its not the computer, its the driver.\n\nLook on your CPU and see if you have a DVD driver. It should say DVD on it. If it just says CD-ROM then you cant burn DVDs.

To to My Computer, right click, go to Hardware, Device Manager and see if you really have a DVD/CD ROM drive.  My guess is you only have a CD drive, which will neither play nor burn DVDs.\n-MM

First you need to convert them to the standard DVD formats (Check on the web for more) \nAfter you have converted them you need to check if the software package you have supports burning DVD into all formats.\n\nAfter you have done all this you can then burn them them to DVD.

Check for DVD Burner or if it is a Codec go to microsoft, do searches and try installing ones that you may need.

Why oh why...that question means nothing. No manufacturer? Why would a DVD ROM need a driver?? I have never know a DVD player/burner needing a driver...are you using DOS?

Did your problem start after you loaded Pinnacle? If so, remove the program and then do a defrag. See which blank media that NEC recommends for that drive from their web site. Blank media plays a larger role in DVD problems than you might  think. Manufacturers coat the blank discs with a colored dye, sometimes green sometimes blue. The laser in your burner is sensitive to one of these colors and will burn to them nicely. But, put the other color dyed disc in and it wouldn't burn for anything. Cd-RW's are the same way. An off the wall guess on my part would be to try some Ridata (Ritek) blanks from newegg.com or try and get the info off the net for that burner. You don't want to update the "firmware" , this may damage your burner beyond repair. And the warranty will be voided. Look at the manual online it says to use 4X DVD-R's,  Verbatium, PVC, Fuji film, and Ritek. The 8X speed DVD's might not work with your drive, try the 4X speed DVD's. For DVD+R's the name RICOH sticks out at me , try the Ridata 4X DVD+R's and see if they work for you. \n\n\nhttp://www.necsam.com/oem/specs/ND-1300a.pdf
