(1/3) > >>

Rick:
Ideas?

What happened?

Tried to format a 4.7g DVD using win7, it failed and now the DVD is unreadable in any system.

How to fix this issue?

Event Log says \dev\CdRom0 has a Bad Block
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930405/

error message; Media in CD/DVD drive is not readable (ASUS DVD-E818A7TG
its a sony cd-r disk



If true, then no format disk options should appear in pre-formated disks MSFT

Further Knowledge to be assesed

Will try these;

Go to the drive makers web site and see if there is a firmware update for the drive -or- if a burning operation
in my case : http://www.sony-optiarc.us/support/downloads/dvdrwseries.html

Change the DVD/CD region to none?
remove/replace cdrom.sys?
Check the capabilities?

Dear MSFT, please fix your software to fix DVD-r that read as not formatted in your systems, and then over write the Sony Formatted versions...

cd/dvd been on market for 20 years, why the nonsense?

You said format a DVD. Was it a DVD-rw disk or just a DVD-r?
