495063 2006-10-27 22:11:00 I have a Samsung "Writemaster" DVD/CR rw

I am useing Nero and CDBurner XP pro 3. (Not at the same time)

I inserted a brand new DVD and copied and burned just over 1 gig of files and folders and bits and pieces. Then I added some more. All OK.

Then I added another folder. It copied OK but when I tried to burn it up pops a message. The CD is not valid and files can not be written to it. Put a new CD in and try again.

Seems something has decided ny dvd is a cd. and its overfull.

Anyway I reformatted the disk and started again with the other program. And the same thing happened again.

Why should a quarter full DVD suddenly decide it's a CD?

Anyone know where I can get about 2 gigs worth of floppies from. Well at least they work.:badpc:
