487930 2006-09-29 03:18:00 I haven't got close to burning yet..

HOW DO I FORMAT A DVD??
I go to format ,but the option to format is greyed out.
Even from the command prompt I get nothing happening.

487932 2006-09-29 03:59:00 I think I'm getting somewhere.

I found a copy of Nero 6 so I removed 5.5 and installed 6.

But now it tells me I have the wrong dvd. I got a +R and nero wants a +R/RW

So I'm off to buy another.

487933 2006-09-29 04:49:00 Well I have vista burned onto a DVR.

It's shown as VISTA followed by a string of numbers.
It does't respond to setup or iinstall and I can't open it to look for exe file.

What Do I do next?
