Best guess with info provided: that dell's burner doesn't like the media you are using. What brand of media in the burner?

how do i update my filmware?

its strange because it recognises it if you just open it as a folder it just isnt recognised in the burning programs

hi

you need to identify your drive / firmware to date then get new file and load/install it...

follow this pic to get file/check if up to date?
