The one I got with my computer is NTI CD DVD Maker 7. The one I have found 
online is NTI Media Maker 8 but it is not free. Here is the link:

If it is the same program though it is probably the latest version and unless 
they have changed things, works very well. However, I've only ever erased and 
burned DVDs with it, so can't say if you want to do anything more advanced than 
that.

  Do you have a website?  This could be ideal for my netbook as I need 
something light and simple.

    Hi

    It's actually NTI CD/DVD Maker. That's about all I know. I use it for 
burning DVDs and it works very well with both JAWS and Window Eyes. I use it to 
erase and burn discs.

        Hi

        I've just worked this out, I knew it was a stupid question. I think the 
name of the software I use is something like NCI DVD Fit or something like that 
and yes, it tells me the info I want to use. I was trying to go the properties 
way as Andy suggested, but I think it was just playing up. Sorted now. Thanks.

          Hi Barbra.

          Do you have a cd dvd burning suite installed on your computer?  If 
you do and my personal choice is Nero, you can use a tool such as Nero disk 
info to find out everything about the inserted disk including format, 
manufacturer, supported read and Wright speeds etc.  I'm sure there are similar 
tools available for download off the internet, and if you have a Lite-on drive, 
they provide a tool for doing just that free of charge so you might want to go 
check the manufacturer's website for useful utilities.

            Barbara - one way would be to highlight the disc, and press alt 
enter on it for it's properties, from the amount of available space, you can 
tell which of the 2 discs it is, but it will probably also give you a clue from 
it's file format.

            HTH -

              When I put a blank disc into my drive on the PC, is there a way 
of finding out whether it is a CD or DVD without being able to see the disc?
