                    Hi - hope you can help.
I am not a techie at all and have just bought an Asus K52f.
I have tried to make the receovery dvd's for the laptop and can't get past disc 2. It burns but won't complete when being checked.
It's happened 4 times at varying times in the process (from 34-70%)
Disc 1 has worked with no trouble. I've tried a diiferent brand of discs but still have the same problem.
Any ideas??
