DVD writer not working

Hi ya,
I hope you can help. I can no longer burn DVD's! I have tried to burn some
photo's onto a DVD and I am being told that I can not use this type of
storage. I have also tried burning other things onto DVD and am getting the
same reply. It is as if the computer does not realize that it can do this
anymore. I can however still burn CD-roms. Before you ask, I do (or did have
a DVD writer). Burning DVD's is not something I do very often, so I don't
know for sure how long I have had this problem.
If anybody can give me some advice on what I need to do to repair this
problem I would be most grateful. I am not very clued up with IT, so if you
could make your explanations as easy to follow as possible I would be very
grateful.

Thanks and best regards,
Mark

I have used the DVD Slideshow Builder for a long time which is easy to
create a customized DVD slide show with photos and videos, and you
can add music, transitions, motion effects and make beautiful DVD
menus. i like it very much due to its high performance.

you can try it here

Starts at an early age generally.

With all that burning going on you need to check out

Seek help man before you burn yourself.
