DVD burning issue

[DoFoT9]

gday all, my MBP (CD) refuses to recognise blank DVD's and will spit them straight back out when i try to put them in. my la cie burner will recognise the disks easily and i can burn to them, but not from my super drive.

any ideas??

thanks,

Sounds like the Superdrive is knackered (to use an Irish expression) ..

If all else is working and you have an external burner, no worries ..

hahaha yea thats true. im just trying to burn a dmg and its failed 3 times so far on the external, burning on the internal sounds more feasible and reliable because its more compatible etcetcetc.

thanks anyways
