    I have a LG RH188S, hdd/dvd recorder.

    Over some time I have filled the hard drive, which now appears to be failing, and burned the contents onto lots of dvd-r discs.

    None of these discs seem to be recoginized by my pc, at best, windows suggests that they are blank. There is no problem playing them in the LG though. I have tried with the same result in other computers.

    So, can these discs be used in a pc?

    Did you finalize the recorded disks in the DVD recorder.
    Check the owners manual and if you didn't finalize them, then try it on one of the recorded disks.

    I have a problem :
    What's the deal with the "Can't record to this DVD" message! I'm sure I can't be the only one facing this frustration! I bought the machine to whittle away mountains of vhs tapes to hills of DVDs, and now I can't find a DVD media it will record to. Sometimes if I push the record button over and over, after it gives me the wont record message over and over, it will begin to record- but rarely. I've read here that people are having success with Maxell. Is this right? I just bought a tower of TDK's that won't work with the machine at all. They do work great with my computer drives though, so not a loss.
    Would appeciate any and all problem related advise!

    Thanks
