Hi,
When i'm trying to create factory restore backup disc, my pc wont recognise the disc in the disc drive.
Windows pops up message,,
"Please insert a blank DVD into the optical drive, then press ok to continue".
I do this and it just spits the disc back out.
Here are my lap top specs.

BTW, device manager does not show any problems with the disc drive.
The disc drive can read an old cdrw disc that i have data on fine.
ATM, i am trying to create/burn the factory recovery on CDR discs from TDK. (obviously without success), these discs are brand new/never used.
I am a little (not totally, computer illiterate), as such please phrase any replies in simple terms.
TY
