[Ham-Computers] DVD burn issue

The unit I used was an HP "dvd writer dvd200i", and the program I used
was the burner that came with it - also named "dvd writer".
There are several different brands of disks used, but they were all
"+", as that was all this burner could do. I'll have to check a few more
to make it a fair test.
I'll never know if the original drive can still read the disks - it
was removed and scrapped months ago, as I suspected it fried the
motherboard in my old PC. Coincidence perhaps, but I know I closed the
door with a DVD in it once, and the PC went completely berserk.
I'm also uncertain now as to which way the program defaulted -
whether it was to close it completely or allow adds. I'm reasonably
certain that on many of them I forced it to close completely, as I has
carefully picked the data to go on it to fill it as close to full as
practical.
Hopes this helps somewhat!
Thanks!
