    I did a search with G2P and DL and nothing came up but what I want to ask is can I burn a DL with this Asus G2P?
    I bought this G2P used just recently and on the net I have seen some stats stating the drive is DL burning capable.

    I just like to know if thats a fact or not. This G2P (OS=XP) was originally purchased in Toronto

    You should check for the optical drive model name in device manager and search the drive specifications:

    yes I did that, It is indeed an LG drive (HL-DT-ST-DVDRAM GSA-T10N)

    While googling I found an excellent program - DVD Identifier
    Its free and it identifies the drive plus it identifies what formats the drive can read and write.

    So yes, I found my own answer. It can burn both -/+ Dual Layer DVD's
