DVD Drive will not burn dual layer DVD’s

by dsmurlo . Updated 20 years, 1 month ago

I am running XP Pro & have a Toshiba CD/dvdw SD-R5372 DVD writer. It burns single layer DVD’s ok. When I try to burn a dual layer disk, it burns @ 48% and comes up with a bad media error. I am using dual layer DVD’s by Fujifilm – DVD+R DL. So far, I have wasted 5 or 6 discs.

I’m tired of experimenting. Am a missing some kind of setting in Windows XP. Everything in Device Manager is OK. The info for the drive says it will burn DL +/- discs. Any advice would be welcome.
