burning DVD-R's
Hello! I have an Inspiron 600m with a HL-DT-ST DVD+RW GCA-4040N drive (I have no idea what those letters/numbers mean, it's just the information in the drive's properties window). Anyways, I have been able to burn DVD-RW's just fine, but for some reason the drive does not even recognize DVD-R's.
Is there any way for me to
1. get the drive to recognize a DVD-R is there
2. burn information on the DVD-R with my DVD+RW drive?
Or am I solely restricted to DVD-RW's?
Thank you for any information you can provide me.

I do not know why you can burn DVD-RW discs. You may want to post in the Dell Inspiron
board to see if others have had this problem.
