Multiburner Problem - Type of DVDs?

Hi all.

I am the proud owner of a 2373-P1U... and with it, the oh-not-so-fast DVD Multiburner. I just decided to start backing up some of my data onto DVD's so I went out and bought a few... I also installed Nero onto my TP for the burning purposes.

Now, the type of DVD's I bought are Fujifilm DVD +R's. When I put them in the drive the drive light constantly flashes and it seems to not recognize the blank disc.

A friend of mine believes that the problem is that I bought the wrong type of blank DVD's... and that they are not compatable with my burner.

Anyone know more about this than me? Thanks in advance for any input!

- Bradley

LOL

Forgive my newbieness to the relm of DVD burning... but I would assume that + and - DVD's are not the same?

What exactly is the difference?

Thank you,

Brad
