i recently purchased a few brand new TDK 8x dvd+r

i own a lite-on 1693s 16x burner



when i go to nero 6 express i was unable to selected 4x write speed.


i know 8x dvds should be burnt at half the speed, but nero 6 only allow me to selected 6x speed minimum.



i had no choice, so i burnt the disc anyway, but after the burn was complete, the drive was able to read it, i edject it out and load it back in, the drive makes alot of clicking noises, the dvds cannot be read.


is there anyway for me to force my drive to burn at 4x?

please help me, please help me i beg you please HELP!

no. if you can't select 4x in nero it means the drive doesn't support that speed for the media you're using.
try updating your firmware

now it's even worst, it won't even burn my dvd+r



nero actually edjects my disc back out and said i need a dvd-r to burn



so now nero won't even reconized my dvd+r, what's going on?




i hate lite-on, i really do, i should have bought a nec or pioneer, this is all my fault T_T

the guy at the store and the magizine was saying how GOOD this freaking drive is, i finally get to see how good it is, first i tried using maxwell dvd+r, it always gives me a coaster burn, now i use tdk dvd+r, it onot only gave me a coaster burn dvd but now it won't even reconized my dvd and ASKED my to put a dvd in the drive, WHEN I ALREADY HAVE A DVD INSIDE!!!
