Verbatim works pretty good too.
ahh Verbatim. I used to only ever buy their CD-Rs. Anyway, I have a small list now, so I'll walk down to the shops later today and see if Tandy or Big W sell Verbatim, Sony or Velocity DVD-Rs and if they don't, I'll go to the other nearby shop and see if K Mart or The Games Wizards have them. Thanks for the help guys!
edit: it might be an idea to keep posting brands. If anyone asks us which brands work well, we could point them here. _________________ My Aki EvoX skin!

man, I am going to need that badly. our local shops sell heaps of no-brand DVD-Rs, but they have Verbatim an Imation CD-Rs. This isn't going to be easy. (btw, how does my signature pic look? it's way too bright on my laptop and too dark on my other Pc's CRT) _________________ My Aki EvoX skin!

It was originally going to be Nightmare from SC2, but I thought, since I'm pretty good at pixel art (and I have a total of 714 NES roms), I should do something like this. (you should see my other PC's desktop, I made the icons myself!)
btw, your games RAWK! I would have played them earlier,but I only updated FireFox a little while ago and before I did, flash made the sound on my laptop stop working 'till I reset.
edit: and the fact that I still haven't got a mini mouse for my laptop kinda stops me playing most flash games. (though I still occasionally play Quake 3 on my laptop with a touchpad...) _________________ My Aki EvoX skin!

Very. I've won about 5 games out of 35 or so...
Maybe I should turn the difficulty down... _________________ My Aki EvoX skin!

Two trains of thought.
1. Be sure that the items you are burning are in ISO format and that you are telling Nero to burn an ISO.
2. Be sure that there are no upgrades available for your burner (firmware).
Nero should not fail you. The media appears to be appropriate. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

Believe me, I have done both of those things. I have tried ISO, XISO and just burning the files with NTI CD & DVD Maker Gold (it came with my laptop). Nothing can burn to those Datastream DVD-RWs and my Xbox can't read the TDK DVD-RWs. _________________ My Aki EvoX skin!

Forahobby, Yeah, I'm gonna try a few, but I'll mainly be looking for 4x DVD-Rs. I'll probably have to do a bit of searching though. _________________ My Aki EvoX skin!
