I recently brought my 1st DVD burner and have had a load of problems with it. I managed to sort most of them out execpt 1. When I use DVD factory 2 to burn a converted avi to DVD it says that the disc is too small although it says that it is 4.4gb. DVD factory only needs 4.2gb, so there is more than enough room on the disc. Also I can not use DVD+RW discs in the drive as in explorer it says the disc has 0 space used and 0 in total. It also see the disc as a cd not DVDRW. I can however burn a disc to disc copy (DVD+R) in Nero which came with the burner. Windows XP can see the drive as a philips DVDRW824p although in my computer it says it's a cd drive. Anyone got any ideas.

The PC is:

Intel P4 2.6gb
768 RAM
120gb HDD
Windows XP Pro
DVD-ROM
Philips DVDRW824p
