My computer doesn't seem to want to burn DVDs in the DVD-RW drive.

My computer says it has a CD RW and I have burned CDs. The disc tray also says DVD ROM/R/RW. I have been able to play DVD's. I am wondering if I have a DVD burner. When I put a Blank DVD into the tray the computer just asks if I want to burn a CD. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks for your time!

Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles contain three words or less actually get FEWER responses?).

are u sure its not a DVD/CD-RW? that just means that u can play dvds but only burn cds.

make sure u have the correct drivers for it as well.
