Can no longer read or burn DVD-9/Dual layer disks???
« on: August 21, 2007, 04:49:00 PM »
About a month ago I purchased memorex Double Layer DVD+R disks and had no problem burning a video much longer than the standard 4.7 GB disks; however, I recently had to reformat my entire computer due to viruses and what not. As a result everything was lost. I reloaded all my old programs and hardware but the only trouble I have is my computer can no longer read a Dual Layer disk like before. Instead it reads the disk as being a CD instead as a DVD and prohibits me from writing any video to the disk. This confuses me because I know my computer is capable of writing to a DL disk because I have done it once before.

Computer: HP PAVILION m7580n w/ Lightscribe DVD+/- Writer/ CD-writer
Processor: AMD Athlon 64*2 Dual core
Processor 4400+ for True multi tasking
Optical Drive: Super Multi DVD burner

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
