DVD Writer Cant Read Disks

[nadizo]

Hey guys thanks for reading this thread...

OK lately i have been having some serious burning issues with my Lite-On DVD+RW Burner,
i was able to burn stuff but nothing would ever be able to be read... I always figured it was the way I was burning but I was wrong... I tried putting in a music cd that works all over the house and it doesnt even read it.

then i tried another and another and again it only works everywhere BUT the computer.

So yes now i know somthing is wrong with my burner. I have no idea what it is...

I want to just buy a EXCELLENT DVD Writer/Burner that will help me burn dvds so that I can watch them on any dvd player... I want to know whats the BEST DVD WRITER POSSIBLE to get.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW .... THANK YOU

Or if you think you can help me fix my problem that would be cool too... thank you again. Bye

It would be helpful if you mentioned the brand and model of your LITEON dvd burner.

I like my BENQ 1620's, 1640's & 1650's drives the best. Next would be PIONEER 111 series. Check out the BENQ, PLEXTOR, PIONEER, LG, LITEON/SONY, NEC & SAMSUNG forums at CdFreaks.com.

according to device manager

LITE ON DVDRW SOHW 1693S
&
JY8245T IOK007O SCSI Cd rom Device ( even though I only have 1 drive?)


In my computer i have E: which is what my dvd drive is
and G: (dvd) even though i dont even know why i have that since i have 1 drive... i deleted all those programs that make virtual drives so I dont know why G: is still there...

What brand of dvd media are you using?

[nadizo]

Im using Taiyo Yuden Disks, Memorex , Sony everything

but it doesnt even matter, I put in music cds and it doesnt even read them, while it reads them on my xbox360...

so its not reading anything...

btw thanks for helping..

You're not going to get any assistance with that sort of attitude. Create a acct. at Cdfreaks.com or face the facts that your dvd burner is toast!

LG Electronics make some kick-arse DVD burners, especially since they have been adding the capability to bitset. I have had nothing but good experiences with their stuff, so they are worth checking out.
