Nero won't allow me to burn dvd-r

[bold] some how nero won't allow me to burn avi. files or any files at all onto dvd-r discs![/bold] Please tell me the problem why. My sister's nero on her computer allows her to but mine doesn't ! Please tell my how to fix the problem. NOTE: it allows me to burn dvd+r/rw and dvd r dl. Thx.

 

What is the model and brand of your burner.

 

it's a lightscribe dvd+/- writer/cd-writer
it's window XP

 

i'm using nero express and am putting avi files onto dvd-r..
but whenever i click on burn it says it's waiting for a disc to be put in... i think it is version 6 or 7
i also tried using nero vision and nero burning rom

 

Can you go to Nero StartSmart, info tools, and it will give you your Nero version and also your burner model and drivers.

 

it says in the supported write features section that it can write dvd-r just not DVD-R DL OR HD DVD-R
It is windows XP Professional (5.01.2600 service Pack 2)

For the driver:
type: DVD+/-R/RW DL Recorder
firmware version: 1823

What else information do u need?
srry to bother u but i really need to load these discs for my vacation on Saturday.

 

It could be a firmware problem, that is why I asked for the MODEL of your burner.
