    I have been using my burner fine for over a year. Now, all of a sudden when I try to backup a DVD it is giving me problems. When I insert the original DVD into the drive it ejects it and says "The disc is blank or invalid." I have tried this with several DVDs and it does the same thing with all of them. I am using the newest version of Nero. Any suggestions?

    It would kinda sorta help to know what burner and firmware you have.

    Not sure. I have a DVD Burner that came with my Dell Dimension 8200. I have not downloaded any additional firmware.
