Red face dvds reading problem!!??

hi guys.. i usually have this problem.. like if i copy dvd i will be abe to read it in my lappy for some i guess some 2 to 3 months.. then it wont be readable only.. some or the other error will come..even though there wont be any scratches.. i use nero..

receently i used windows burner in my friends hp pavilion note book.. burned a dvd ,, checked TWICE in his laptop.. now when i brought home.. i saw.. not readable in my lappy.... i dont know what is wrong..when i checked in some other desktop.. it worked(thought some data was not readable)

even if i simply copy dvd,,, it doesnt get read..

one last question.. do dvd take little time to read?? like it for me it takes almost 5 mins to appear tht auto play window...


I DONT KNOW WHERE IS THE PROBLEM.....


1 IN DVDS>
2 IN DVD WRITING
3 LAPTOP LENS?


pl tell me what should i do..is ther any kind of setting tht i am missing for my dvd drive??

well dvd riter is like with my laptop.. its some 9 to 10 months old... i dont burn dvds much.. as due to such problems.. but one thing is sure... i never had any problem with burning cds.... then still u think it can be problem with dvd riter??

my laptop is still in warranty period..


the thing is this is such dumb problem i find.. like how can i explain to care center also.. if i go with burned dvd... and show its not readable.. they will defenately tell me.. tht u must not have copied dvd correctly.. and show his some other dvd which might work.. and later on tell me tht its working correctly.. what to do...

ya tht works normally... thts the thing.. i feel very dumb of it man.. i cant guess only where is the problem..


its like if i start burning dvd.. it takes some 20 mins to complete.. in between i can literally feel.. tht dvd is not runnig at same speed.. for some time it will revolve very fast....zzzzzzz... then speed will decrease.. z z z z z z.... again will move fast.. (can make out.... keeping hand over dvd region in lappy normally)..


many times its like it dvd 1st will run very fast trying to read.. then suddenly one "crrrrik" sound will come.. then shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit............ i come to know .. cd some error ...

Thats correct... cheap dvds spell doom... and use dvd cleaner... in case of lens getting full of dust... it does the trick...

oho u thing u can buy the cheap ones and use it forever, and the scratches are not like mega gigantic scratches always.
take the dental lens of yours and look, u ll see the microscopic ones that can cause havoc.

well........ but like even good ones are no better for me.. before i used to get good ones only.. but same problem happend... then i got normal slightly cheaper ones.. tht also same problem...


and as u toking abt minor scratches and all tht can create havok.. why not cds? i mean i use so many cds with lots of scratches.. have noticed.. it reads well and even faster then dvd.....

i burned a dvd some two days back... from my friends lappy using windows in bulild burner.. i came home.. checked it.. error.. cant read the dvd... u think minor scratches in 2 days can happen .. leads to error... oh pl
