The Disc in the drive is not a writable CD (notice it says CD, NOT DVD), or it is full. Which is isnt. Its a rewritable dvd. This update is for blu-ray burners (www.microsoft.com) Speedy Gonzales (78)

(The one question I didn't ask (assumed as he said this

This problem has only just happened, that he'd had it working:p)

846217 2010-01-06 05:00:00 Yeah, it wasnt till I noticed noone had asked WHAT OS he was using. Then I had a guess it was XP. And that he was using XP for the burning (why the dvd burning wasnt working). :) It may have been his first try at burning to DVD (why he said the problem has only just happened). Because he's never tried it before Speedy Gonzales (78)
846218 2010-01-06 07:14:00 Hi Guys, I tried the windows update KB 932716 - it stil came up with the same notice "The Disc in the drive is not a writerble CD or it is full " I am obviously doing something wrong. Had a rethink and used "Nero" -- great it worked !!!!!!! Will try XP again tomorrow. Many Many thanks guys, G. Grampsey (10603)
846219 2010-01-06 07:17:00 Hmmm, was it a dvd you had written to before?? Nero should work. Well any program that supports burning to dvd will work Speedy Gonzales (78)
