Problem With Dru-500a and Nero

[Vapz]

I updated the firmware, I have the most updated nero. But when I try to burn an .iso, i insert the dvd-r into the burner and start the burn and nero pops up an error saying... Medium Required for the Compliation : Cd-Rw/Cd-r
Type of Medium: Dvd-Rw

I can't get this to bypass, and havent been able to burn any dvd's or even mp3's. Please help
thanks

What kind of .iso is it ? Isn't it CD .iso ? Just an idea...

[Vapz]

I dont think it really matters, since .mp3, .img, .cue, etc doesnt work ether.

There might some people that undertand this more, but I think that you can't interchange CD and DVD. Try it with CD-RW and see. Maybe I am wrong.

hi,

when You start nero did You select the drive as DRU500 A CD/RW or DVD. Probably you have selected CD/RW as it is the Default it select for me. chage that to DVD then try.

Naw I know I checked DVD and have it selected for the burner. Still is asking for a cd-rw when i have a dvd-rw in the drive and am burning a 4.5 gig file.

You might check the iso with a utility like isobuster to see what is in it. It does indeed sound like a CD-R disc image. If not then there are other programs that also burn iso files and you can try them.
