Are you sure you have a DVD burner?
What model burner is it?
Is it a +R, -R, +RW, -RW, DL or some combination of those?
Are you using the proper DVD type for what your DVD burner can write
to?

try
changing the brand of DVD media or try reinstalling the burnin
software or
try checking for an update for the software. If that fails then tr
cleaning
the drive. In my experience when a DVD R/W or for that matter a CD-R/
no
longer acknowledge blank media it is either poor media or a faile
laser.

You answered your own question..
You do NOT have a DVD burner.
You have a CD Burner.

LTR-48327
/ LTR48327)
# Write, Read, and Rewrite Your Own CDs

No where in there does it tell you that you can burn DVDs, because i
is not
a DVD Burner.
You need a DVD Burner to burn DVDs.
A CD Burner - like you have - will only burn CDs.
So - you either have to make your burning projects smaller or buy
DVD
capable drive and keep your projects below their limits.
