enouch Posted January 30, 2010 Hi! A friend, fellow bum is trying to make several neigung copies for me but he sent me this message: I'm having an issue making dvd's and I was wondering if you might be able to help me.  I have a compaq presario from 2006, stock. It's a laptop. I've purchased dvd+r dvd-r and whenever I insert one to burn I get an error messege as  Insert Writable Disk.  Do you know how I can actually make dvd copies? Oh, my computer can read dvd+rw because I have a few of those with some neikung and liao training, etc on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mal Posted January 31, 2010 I use DVDFab and PowerISO to make various DVD's  but it sound like his DVD drive might be playing up? Can it record a normal file to a disk at all? (i.e. test it out on rewritable disk to see it it's working) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
center888 Posted January 31, 2010 Insert Writable Disk. Burning a CD/DVD is normaly straight forward - likely reasons with the given information for such an error are limited to the basics: His Notebook/PC isn't able to burn dvd's (or only dvd-r dvd+r but it seems he has tested both). The dvd has already content on it. He uses a software that doesn't support dvd or he selected something differnt e.g. create data-cd. Â If he uses a common software there aren't much other options left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted February 5, 2010 what program is he using? that can happen if the dvd in question has anti-copy or some sort of write protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
