I have a Dell D630 Laptop, It plays CDs and DVDs okay but it dosen't seem to recognize when I load a blank dvds ready to burn. Haven't tried blank CDs yet. Is it possible drivers need changing or uninstalling and installing again?

Always worth updating driver.
Also, you could try MS Fixit-

In the thread title you call it a CDR. Is it def a DVD writer? (don't mean to sound funny!)0 -
No worries. I am sure I have written DVDs on this laptop before. Ran that fix but did seem to resolve problem.0

No. Think I got it wrong. Found a blank CDR and it burnt perfectly. User Error
Many Thanks0 -
Glad it's sorted. Device manager will give you the exact model so you can google it to make sure if you want.0
