Windows XP wont write data to my DVD-RW. I have a Philips 1208 DVD+rw, it works fine as a CD writer (with CDR media) and it makes DVDs from programmes such as My DVD and DVDit!, but if I wish to simply send datd to it like I do with a normal CDR (send to [drive letter]) and I run the wizard it tells me that the disk in the driver is empty of full, yet windows shows the cd as a re-writable with 4.7 space available....? NERO sends data OK to it... can XP write data to a DVD?

Also, and pardon the bitching, why is it that XP wont let me erase a file, it may be a file that I have not used at all (say an MP3 I downloaded and then realized did not want), it gives me this [the file is being used] messsage, I even have directories that I cannot erase because of that....any idea of why?...many, many thanks for your replies...

It is good to know, Philips customer support keeps telling me it is my installation of XP that is wrong!!!, why can't XP write to DVD? anyone has a clue about the [file being used] when trying to delete a folder?
