Hello:


Someone burned a couple of DVDs (Verbatim DVD , 4.7 GB, 120 Min, 16X
Certified) and send them to me.
Whenever I try to access the content of these DVDs on my LapTop, I keep
getting the following ERROR MESSAGE:

**********************************************************************
The DVD is NOT formatted. Would you like to
format the DVD, Yes or No ?
**********************************************************************

I also tested these DVDs on a desktop computer and got the same (above)
message.

* I would definitely appreciate if someone could
help me resolve this issue ?
* Is there a way to configure my DVD player so
that it can recognize the Verbatim DVDs ?



Here is some additional information:

* My DVD an burn CDs but has trouble burning DVDs sometimes.
* The DVD on my Lap Top is working OK since I can access the content from
other sources
* My Toshiba LapTop was purchased in December 2002. The DVD player on the
desktop computer was purchased
since 2000. , could these DVD player is somewhat outdated ?
*


Thanks,
Jo

Since the issue is on both computers, I would contact the sender and ask
them to send working copies of DVD.
