    Which optical drive do you have? Go to Device Manager and look it up.

    It should burn plus discs.

    What speed are they rated for?

    I have had problems with 16 speed discs even in recorders rated for them.

    I try to stick to 4 or 8 speed max to be sure I get good burns.

    You may also wanna try a different manufacturer of discs.

    What is the problem exactly you're having? Is it asking for a blank disc
    when you insert a blank +R disc? Or is it beginning the burn but
    having errors?

    That drive is known to have issues. I wish Dell would stop putting them into new computers.
