This sort of problem can be like wrestling a greased pig :-) The distro you use may not be recognising the drive correctly, though I would not put that as the most likely. There could be a bug in the k3b version you have - though I would expect hundreds of people to be screaming if that were so. So, going by my experience, the first thing I'd be looking at is the discs themselved. On this laptop, for instance, I see exactly that if I try to burn onto DVD-RW discs, even if they are previously unused. The first thing to try, then, is a different disk - maybe a different format - -R or +R - and maybe a different brand of disk. Certainly that can make a difference. Some brands are very reliable, others vary a bit in quality. If that still doesn't sort the problem, send me a screenshot and I'll see if there are any clues there. Anne
