John (and FYI to the rest of the list), You may want to check if there are any firmware upgrades available for your DVD drive, as many drives require such updates before burning some of the newer media available. If this does not help and you do need to pass the disks along to another volunteer, I have a fairly new TDK drive that I suspect will be able to handle them, and I am in Urbana, IL if you would like me to give them a try. Good luck, Scott Schmucker John Hagerson wrote:

I purchased a number of packages of Verbatim DVD-R media which it appears that my Sony DVD drive doesn't like.

Should I replace the DVD drive and use this media, or (what I think I prefer) keep the drive, pass along this media to another US-based volunteer, and get different media for myself?

I'm near Chicago.

Thank you for your suggestions.

John Hagerson
