      I would think that it would work becuase the CD and the disk drive are both made by Memorex.

        What does this DVD Cdrom take! + or - CD, DVD!! Normally a simple mistake when choosing disks . I believe you have the wrong CD DVD disks. Look at the disks they have + or - on them. Your dvd will also tell you if it takes them!!
        The disk has no + nor - on it.

          I'll take a photo of the disk so that you can show me where to look.

              I hope that is clear enough.  The text on the top says: "rewritable - 12x - 700MB - 80min"

              Yes. It clearly says CD MINUS RW. Check your drive manual, if it accepts "-" disks. It should, but just to be sure.

                  It does accept -, could the problem be with the speed?

                  Yes. If your drive doesn't have "High Speed" logo on it, you can't use those disks.
