It no longer reads the dvd recovery disks I created and refuses to burn any more DVD's just ejects them with an error every time. <BR />I have since done a complete system recovery with the rcovery device stored on my hard drive. The problem remains..<BR /><BR />Could it be a driver problem?? faulty DVD-rw unit??<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 17 Oct 2005 10:39:25 GMT https://community.sony.pt/t5/pcs-accessories/dvd-rw-problems/m-p/111930#M103713 Beanos 2005-10-17T10:39:25Z Re: DVD-RW problems https://community.sony.pt/t5/pcs-accessories/dvd-rw-problems/m-p/111932#M103714 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Beanos and welcome.<BR /><BR />Your model number is actually PCG-K215M, the 925M is just the Sony product code.<BR /><BR />As you have carried out a full system restore this is most likely hardware related.
