    I have a Toshiba laptop, 8 months old, and the burner has stopped recognizing stuff. It's fine with ANY CD format, blank or recorded/store bought.

    But for DVD..only will see blank DVDR, but not blank dual layer, nor any DVD with material on it...either burned or store bought. This smells like a firmware or conflict issue, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

    Any ideas or sites? I checked Tosh's website but it was useless.

    Smeels like it's time to return it.

    Uninstall the drive through Device Manager, then reboot. Let it reinstall. Test again. If it still doesn't work, get it replaced while you still have warranty left.

    Nope, a firmware cannot just go bad.

    You should contact and ask the Toshiba support first.
