Default DVD re-writer

Did you remember to reinstall your DVD burning software?

Default DVD re-writer

After the recovery the basic packages were reinstalled and then i loaded a
nero burning package. Both drives play cd's and dvd's and recognise blank
cd's but just dont recognise blank dvd's. I have tried the troubleshooter and
checked all the settings i can think of. i have now run out of ideas.

You must note that DVD drives (either ROM or RW) each have two lasers.
Providing you made sure that most/all the updates for your Nero have been
installed, then the DVD laser in each have gone bad and you may need to
replace the units.
