This is a new one for me. I would have thought the burner would only reject the media if you were trying to burn more data than could fit onto the disc? Which software application are you using, and whats the brand of your burner?

What burning software are you using? Nero can be told to accept 90 minute disks

open burning rom and go to preferences and select the expert feature tab selct enable overburn (2nd option) and enter the time of 90 minutes and 2 seconds

Its a while since I used a 90 minute disk so I may have missed somthing but I will double check.

Also make sure you burn at a slower speed rather than full speed and burn in DAO mode.

You will need to "overburn" the disc
