Has anyone here ever tried DVD+RW DL discs?

[SickBeast]

I bought the discs so I could do monthly backups of my Vista rig. Vista's backup program crashed halfway through after it had written 3.90GB worth of data.

I'm using a Pioneer 110 burner.

Nero can't even format the dsics, and Windows Vista formats them to 4GB.

Is this a hardware compatibility problem?

Its the media more than likely

Whose are they ??

(Second thought .. have you done a firmware update on the Pioneer ?? )

ProData makes the discs.

I have updtaed my firmware.

They're working in DVD decrypter, and they seem to work just to burn files in Vista. I'll post an update later. I might have just had a bad disc. :light:

You might want to try Verbatim DL media. According to the guys over at cdfreaks.com forum those are "the best" dual layer media you can get.

Just as an update, these discs don't seem to work with the Windows Live File System.

I'm tryihg a mastered disc now.
