I have a Dell Inspiron 630m laptop running XP with an NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A cd drive. Just over two years old.
When I try to format a new cd or DVD, a message comes up saying that the disc is Read Only, these are fresh out of the pack and different makes so I know there is nothing on them.
If a previously formatted disc is inserted ie, one with photos on, it reads it ok.
I've done a Windows driver check and it says that I am using the current driver.
Would be grateful for any help.
Regards,
Luddite
