I'm having the same problem and to add further confusion - why does erasing files pose a problem for RW formatted DVD's or CD's? The format allows one to create / delete / move files as one does on a hard drive. Which is why I just love using DVD+-RW format.
Windows native build-in format for these disks wont allow you to delete 1 file out of many, but Nero INCD will, which is I believe is the source of all the confusion. INCD was working on the new puter, then for no apparent reason my old disks became full - ie I couldn't record nadir. On the old puter I had no problem with the same disk. My new machine is using the trial version 64-bit edition of XP - free to download, and otherwise working fairly well for a trial OS. I upgraded specifically to do this! Here is my system summary. OS Name Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP Professional x64 Edition Optical drive : LITE-ON DVDRW SOHW-1693S Display Card : NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT Motherboard : GA-K8N-SLi Chipset : nVidia nForce4 ICP Giga-Byte Technology nForce4 PCI to ISA Bridge Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ Any suggestions would be greatfully received.
