problems with NEC NR-7900A

[cmac50]

I have a NEC NR-7900A drive but it doesn't seem to work with new disks I got recently. These are Recordable (write once) single sided DVD 4.7GB. For use in DVD+RW video recorders and DVD+RW data drives (Computer use). I keep on getting the error medium not present. What am I doing wrong or what piece of equipment should I have?
Thank you.

Is the 7900A capable of writing DVD's? By looking at Google quickly it is a CD-RW

Thanks to all who replied. How silly can one be when it comes to computer stuff - looks like I wasted my money on buying the wrong medium. Should have CDs - not DVDs

Sorry about the sig. I have got what I wanted from the forum and thread will now be deleted so not to worry any more on that score.

Happy Easter and God Bless.

Glad you sorted it.

Happy Easter to you too
