| Guest | Re: Why does Vista always want to format a blank CD or DVD disk? One more note, Look at the labels on the DVD disks, If it says DVD-R or DVD-RW (notice the hyphen) the disk is already formatted. If it says DVD+R or DVD+RW (notice the plus sign ) the disk needs to be formatted. Jerry "Gordon" <gbplinux@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:g4l24u$9qk$1@xxxxxx

to format it. "Do you have Recording enabled" for drive ? I found that in Drive Properties - Recording tab - uncheck "Recording " box and autoformatting stopped for me. Blank DVD's for either model would produce same result. If you had software cd burning app installed, IT would start format ( if set to do so) automatically. Windows sees unusable media and is trying to correct it. | ||||||||||||
