Update your Nero to 7.5.9.0 from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/?1881 And I bet IHoe told you about these Try Verbatim or Sony (made in japan)
is it odd that when i enter a blank dvd in my drive, that little box that comes up and says what do you want to do with this calls it a cd? even though the other programs recognize it as a blank dvd
