Hi guys,

Yesterday, I was trying to burn some 300MB files into a DVD using Nero Multimedia 10. The process started and all went well till it reached about 40%. Then, the program became not responding. I waited for 1 hour but still, the status didnt change. Then, I tried closing the program but the program wouldnt. So, I pressed the eject button on the Writer and then the program closed and the disc came. I placed the DVD again but it beeps for 7 seconds and then does nothing. I thought the DVD was damaged. Then I tried another two disc but the same happened. Now, I can't view any CD or DVD. I tried but couldn't. So, I need to know whether my DVD writer is damaged or is there a solution to fix this.

I never wanted to hear that. Are you sure there are no other options? And how much does one cost? If you can, please give me the cost in Rupees.

DVD drives are the cheapest things you can buy. In australia, they are about $30 AUD, which according to google is about 1344 rupees.
