Hi, I have recently installed a sony DVD writer aw-q170a. Now using Cheetah DVD burning software I burned some mpeg,photots,etc on a blank DVD-R disc. AFter buring was over I tried to read the data, but writer is not reading the DVD. I took the DVD to my Sansui DVD player and it was running fine, it played the mpegs and photos. Then I burned a blank CD. After burning, the DVD writer is reading the CD without any problem. The DVD writer is playing my DVD movies also and burning CDs and reading them. But it not reading the DVDs written by it. What may be the problem. I am using Pentium III 800. XP. Thanks,
Have you tried a different burning software such as ImgBurn or CloneDVD2? Also make sure your firmware is up to date.
