    I have this burner on my system.. running XP, I can use RW DVDs but not the R+ type. It doesn't recognize it as valid media. However, when I use the sony tool to test the drive, it does in fact write to a DVD +R. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi.... I was hoping it wasn't the disks.. I am going to go out today and buy some better quality ones. I already updated the firmware. Thanks for the assist

    Well, my choice of poor quality disks was not the issue, as I bought Sony's last nite and the drive doesn't recognize SONY +R DVD's either. It still only recognizes the RW DVD's.
