hello!
I've got a problem: I don't know why but I can't burn DVD+/-RW discs (Verbatim, Philips, ePro, etc) under Windows...I burn them in ubuntu using Brasero and K3b. I've tried with 2 different drives: ASUS DRW-1608P3S and Samsung SH-S203B using the latest firmwares. Every software I've tried with (includin Windows XP's own engine) tells me that the discs aren't DVDRW discs. My Windows XP is up to date too. Can someody help me? Thank you!!!

Hi and welcome... Can you define the various software you have tried to burn with? Any particular error messages or logs you can provide? Review Microsoft KB Article 314060 and try that... What IDE/SATA drivers do you have installed? Sometimes it helps to delete the IDE/SATA controllers from the device manager and reboot and let Windows re-detect them.

And, I feel like a broken record, but use ImgBurn.

I have the IDE/SATA drivers from the latest nVidia nForce 4 package 6.86. I tried using Nero 7.x, 8.x, NTI and Windows XP's included software. There aren't any error messeges besides this:
