Your drive is probably a CD-R(W)/DVD-ROM drive. These are not capable of writing DVDs, but only reading them.
Read/ write drives allow you to write DVDs. ROMs only read.
First Answer:Sadly, you can't.Second Answer:Actually, most disc drives are backwards compatible to the last disc. So, DVD drives can read/write to CD and Blu-ray drives can read/write DVD and CDRs.It does not work the other way around. You can't read/write to a DVD if the drive is marked as a CD drive.
The purpose of a DVD drive is to read and write CD's and DVD's. If the drive also has rewriting capability, it can also burn CD's and DVD's.
I guess you could try to pu it into the DVD drive if your computer has the CD and DVD combo drive I guess you could try to pu it into the DVD drive if your computer has the CD and DVD combo drive
DVD-Rom can play DVDs, a burner can play and copy DVDs. That's right, but what's more, a burner can be a DVD burner or a burning software which is able to convert and burn videos and movies to DVDs so you could play it on your DVD player.
A DVD-ROM drive does not have the capability to burn DVDs, only read them.you can reference the article :DvD Drive Can not Write to Writable Discs (Windows 98, ME, XP)http://laptopacadapter.wordpress.com/2010/01/23/dvd-drive-can-not-write-to-writable-discs-windows-98-me-xp/
"A specification from the DVD Forum that certifies DVD drives for media compatibility. Drives with the DVD Multi logo can read and write DVD-RAM, DVD-RW and DVD-R discs as well as read DVD-Video and DVD-ROM. DVD Multi drives may also be able to play DVD-Audio discs. See dvdand dvd-audio."taken from dvd-multi
No. A cd-rom drive cannot play DVD's. A DVD drive can play CDs and DVD's. A cd-rom drive isn't made for DVD's. It's made only for CD's, and it can't write any. It can only read.
A CD drive is an optical drive (a piece of hardware that reads Compact Discs). A DVD drive is an optical drive (a piece of hardware that reads DVD Discs). There are lots of optical drives that can read both DVDs and CDs, some can even 'burn' information onto blank discs. ___________________ From: TheAllKnowingEye
Floppy Disk Drive, Hard Disk Drive, CD/DVD RW Disks, Pen Drive etc..
A CD-RW drive or DVD-RW drive.
That is a DVD burner. Most read and write to CDs as well as DVDs. Hybrid drives that read/burn CDs but only read DVDs also exist.
