NEC player treats the DVD - RW in read mode only - will not erase or allow you to replace

Brief description: I burn TV for DVD - RW disks shows and having seen on TV, re - use the drive for new shows. After several reuses (5-10), the disc cannot be erased, and when I try to delete files on the disk, Explorer tells me the disk is read-only and begins to access D drive problems.

Detailed description:

Computer: Dell Inspiron 9300

System: MS XP Media Edition

Burning software: ImgBurn and BurnAware

Trying to delete it:

(1) ImgBurn trying to erase before burning new files - I get a ' Oh, no. ' and a failure on the mark of 43%.  The analysis is as follows:

(2) BurnAware - I ran quick and full erase erase.  BurnAware then tells me that the disc is erased, but when I try to use it to burn the new files, it goes in a loop to tell me that he must erase the drive, run the deletion program, telling me to wipe the drive, run the deletion... without doubt ad infinitum.

(3) active @ DVD Eraser, which is a dedicated erase utility.  He also tells me that he erased the disc successfully, both the quick and full erase operation.

(4) while Windows Explorer will not bring up the option 'Clear' with the discs, I tried simply to delete the files on the disks.  Explorer tells me that the disc is read-only.

Other error messages ImgBurn gave me while I'm trying to workaround:

(a) external to Exception E06D7363

With the drivers, I think it means that the drive is locked.

b DeviceIoControl (FSCTL_LOCK_VOLUME) failed

Cannot lock volume for exclusive access

Reason: Access is denied

ImgBurn then suggests that I have close other programs that might be using the file.  There is nothing that I see running using the file.

Engraved on the disc files continue to play, so burn attempts success messages appear to have no effect on the disc.

Meanwhile, other DVD - RW disks continue to work fine, until one day the player converts a unerasable disc. The first time, I thought it was a medium failure, but I do not think that several drives would fail in exactly in the same way, with issues related to future readers.  The problem of subsequent player is, of course, the Drive D not available, access denied message that comes out the D drive.  I can get it using burners do something successful, or think it is successful.

In any case, any suggestions on how I can keep re - use RW discs?
