Hi Haagah,

1. are you able to burn the disc from the Windows DVD burner?
2. you have any third-party CD burning software installed on your computer?
3. don't you label your CD using Windows Explorer?
4 is the DVD read write drive?

Measures taken before burning the disc.

  • CD/DVD Rom drive reads the DVD as blank disc?

    Looked for information on the subject the whole place and it feels like I'm the only one who has this problem.

    The CD/DVD-Rom drive in my HP laptop is not reading the data on my DVD or CD I DVD that have been burned on a computer and some other that I burned on this drive. Data on them that I've used them in the past and without any problem. I changed nothing on my computer since the last time I used them I can think of and I have all the latest software updates for Vista and HP.

    Now when I put in drive it takes about a minute and then gets up and tells me that the disc is empty, but I know it's NOT like I've used it before and I see on the underside of the drive it was burned.

    Is this a problem of software or a hardware problem or disk I have not tried a lot of things that just the standard checks to try to get the drive to run but without success. For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Phil.

    Hello PhilStokes,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    Sorry, you have a problem with this issue.  I would first go to Device Manager to verify that all drivers are up-to-date.

    Go to start-> Type ' Device Manager "" in the search field-> select Device Manager '->, select here (+) for the CD/DVD - rom-> This will fall to the bottom of your device-> next right-click on the device and select update. "

    If not chance or driver is already updated, return to Device Manager and right click on your device and select uninstall.  You may be prompted to restart, anyway go back to Device Manager and right click again and select install or update.

    Please let us know status.  Thank you! Engineer James Microsoft Support answers visit our Microsoft answers feedback Forum and let us know what you think.

  • My hard drive is not even read the disc (Dragon Age: Origins)

    Today I bought a new video game for PC (Dragon Age: Origins).
    After inserting the disc, I thought I could hear the drive reading the disc, but it kept stopping.

    This ended up in my computer not give me an error message saying that there is problem... it's almost as if he thinks that I have never inserted the disc.

    So I tried to run another game disc, and he managed to read the disc.

    Please help :(

    the required for the game is the following:

    OS: Windows XP (SP3) or Windows nice (SP1) or Windows 7
    Processor: Processor Intel Core 2 SINGLE 1.6 GHz or equivalent AMD Athlon 64 2/0 GHz processor or equivalent
    RAM: 1 GB (1.5 GB Vista and Windows 7)
    Disc drive: DVD ROM required
    Hard drive: 20 GB of disk space

    and I guess that video and sound are not the problem here.

    HDD: 750 GB

    ... As you can see, taking me the time to post all this place really shows how frustrated I am... so please Helo me ASAP :(

    It is possible that you have a bad DVD drive.  Try it in another computer (a friend or relative) and if it didn't work for them either, you may have to contact the company for a replacement drive.  If it works on their computer and not yours, you may need an update of the firmware of your DVD player to make it compatible with the disc.  It is a rare event, but can happen.  You will need to go to the website where you made your computer and download the update of the firmware if available.
