[QUOTE="vaslys, post: 825864, member: 94553"] Hello! I was asked to 'format' dvd-rw to be used in Windows. I am actually new to Mac OS: the only thing that I found was 'Clean' command in the Disk Utility. Seemingly after cleaning Mac can write (burn) to the dvd; and the burned files (as I understand) will be readable in Windows. However, I do not have to burn any files onto the dvd; I have to return the dvds back clean and fully ready to be used in Windows. Windows see the dvd which I 'cleaned' in Mac OS but cannot burn any files to the dvd (says the dvd is not writable). Is there any method or utility to "format" dvd-rw in Mac OS to make them ready for Windows? Thank you in advance! [/QUOTE]
