Hi All,
Im trying to create a recovery CD/DVD for my HP Pavilion. When using CD-Rs the system seems to write to the disc OK but refuses to verify the data and tells me there is a '' media surface '' error. I have used 3 different types of CD-R, each one generates the same error. I have just tried using a DVD-R this time before writing the info the system is telling me that the DVD isnt blank even though its straight out of the box. I have gone into windows explorer and selected the drive that the DVD-R is in and it tells me the disc is indeed blank. Any ideas whats up and how I can get around this ?
Thanks in advance
