Tips & Warnings
Make sure you're using the right size disc for your files. If you try to burn a large file to a disc that doesn't have enough free space, the computer will refuse to burn the file.
If there's something wrong with your DVD burner, the computer will refuse to recognize the blank disc. If this should occur, call Dell for technical support.
