  First... just a suggestion... using a slow burn speed
  produces a more reliable copy.

  If you have software installed Nero should have
  an option for copying DVDs.

  Also, the following method can be your answer...

  The following freeware can create an ISO Image

  Hi cocknballs4u,

  Try to copy the files in one shot and check if you still get the error message.
  Given that the issue occurs at random times, I suggest that you can delete the temporary files that are created by the burning.

  Navigate to the following location and delete them all the files in the temporary folder burn.
  Burn \appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Burn\Temporary file C:\Users\

  Then delete temporary files on the computer.

  My laptop seems to have decided to stop reading data disks.
  However, there is no problem with the audio CD, but when I insert a data disc such as the software considers the disk is empty and try to format the drive.
  I searched internet day for solutions and tried without success to the following:

  Removed the UpperFilters and LowerFilters in the registry.
  Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers.
  Bought DriverWhiz (waste of money!)
  Tried to access disc command prompt that generated the message "incorrect function".
  Tried to use the enforcement function and access an exe file that I know is on the disk, but it comes up saying I need to format the drive
  Uninstall service packs
  I even thought it might be something to do with the MagicVirtual drive I had installed so I uninstalled completely which
  I uninstalled real player

• DVD player - watch my DVD-R disc data but all files disappeared and I get the message ' Drag files in folder to add To Disc ' at the opening of the DVD

  Yesterday, I used my laptop Toshiba Satellite update of data on an excel spreadsheet on my dvd - r disc, which is half full of files such as spreadsheets, assorted images and backup files.  Today, when I insert the disk into the pc it still shows 2.43 free 4.37 GB has been the norm, which means that it contains these files.  But when I open the drive there is nothing else that a message "drag files in this folder to add To Disc".  I don't know what happened.  I had just copied various basis files that I mentioned on this drive months ago without any problems.  I've updated excel spreadsheet monthly with no problem.  I checked the other drives I have and they are very good.  Any help would be appreciated.

• DVD-R discs play only on internal burner/reader of DVD that was used to create the disc?

  Hello

  This is the DVD-R that I created will not play on my Player DVD TV Philips standard or any other DVD player other than the one used to create the floppy disks?  I tried to lower the record speed of Windows DVD Maker, Cyberlink Power Director, and Nero 11 and all have the same issue?  I can only read my disks on HP laptop DVD drive?  The discs I used are:

  Philips DVD - R 4.7 GB 1-16 X
  Memorex DVD - R 4.7 GB 16 X

  My old Windows XP machine has no problems burning these discs and they play back well on Player DVD TV Philips and all players with my friends.

  Read the info above about the correct format to burn in.

  Burn a disc using the ISO image format

  Choose the size of the ISO image when you need a highly compatible disc that will play in computers with an older version of Windows or in devices such as CD and DVD players that can play video files and music digital.

• Satellite A300 - how to use the recovery with external DVD drive disc?

  Hello

  I bought a toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 d

  FTM the tsscorp drive that is installed in the camera no longer works (does not detect any type of media what so ever). ) need to recover the laptop, so I used a USB DVD drive to boot from the restore disc, but after that the charges of recovery console it says waiting for media in the f: drive, which is the tsscorp drive although I used an external drive to load the disc.

  What files should I edit to make it to load from the drive externally and if this isn't the solution, what do I do?

  Thanks in advance

  Hey Buddy,

  Unfortunately I think that it of not possible to use the recovery with external CD/DVD drive disc. Therefore, place the internal for use the recovery disc.
  You can get a new drive to an authorized service provider.

  But if the original OS from Toshiba is installed, you can use the function of disk recovery HARD reinstall Windows as well. Go to the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer :)

  Walter, welcome to the forum.

  Sometimes optical drives are picky about the drives used.  I, too, have always used + R discs without any problem.  In fact, they are usually the best option.

  Here is a guide that can help you solve your problem.  You will need to use a USB flash drive.  I did my last drive recovery with a USB flash drive.  It has worked well.
