    I purchased a 10 pack verbatim 800mb/90min discs but my computer wont recognize
    them other than the standard 700mb/80 min discs??
    I wonder if there are some production fault or must I change something on laptop
    for the optic drive to read them correct?
    Help.......

    what is your optic drive? check to see if there is a firmware update for that drive to read 800mb disks.

    The 'mechanical specifications' of Verbatim media are very precise, and data written to it can be read in a wide range of drives. As a result, Verbatim discs demonstrate a high level of compatibility between drives running at a wide range of speeds.

    Superior resistance to UV irradiation.
    Archival Life: Extra Protection - up to 40 years; AZO - up to 100 years.
    Lowest error rate against a range of CD writers.
    Lifetime Warranty.

    Product Number: 43428
    Capacity: 800MB
    Speed: 40x
    Pack Style: 10 Pack Jewel Case

    The Extra Protection surface is available in white ink which reduces the risk of data loss and includes an area for content identification.

    High Capacity CD-R is compatible with most CD / DVD writers. Recorder software settings may need to be adjusted.

    the drive is matshita bd-cmb uj141a but these 800mb discs have been around for many years so I would asume they should be a part of older FW as well.
