Toshiba Disc Creator For M115

Hi All,

I have a Satellite M115 Toshiba laptop and I am trying to use the Toshiba Disc Creator software that is bundled with the computer.

I am trying to make a copy of a 4.7 GB DVD and have not been successful. I am theorizing that the Toshiba Disc Creator software is not able to accomadate DVDs of this size.

Is this true and if so, is there any other way that I can copy the DVD with the software currently on my laptop.

Thanks in advance.

Bob

 

The software has nothing to do with the size it can accommodate. What sort of DVD are you trying to copy.

 

Hi Adinu,

I am trying to copy a Sony DVD-R 120Min/4.7 GB DVD to another Sony DVD. I have done the same thing successfully with a Gateway computer using different software.

I am able to make an image file which is 812KB. When I click on it to write to the target disc, I get the following message "The target drive cannot write a disc from the image file. Please select another file"

The reason that I suspected that this image file may be too big is that there is a thermometer in the Toshiba Disc Creator window which reads 122.1%, 794 MB which is maxxed out.

I'm not asking what brand the DVD is, I'm asking what's on the DVD. Is it a movie, a game, other software, or just data?

 

JPG files.

I just performed a simple experiment. I copied a few files (various types) from my Gateway computer to a DVD. On the Toshiba laptop, I was not able to copy them to a DVD but I copied them successfully to a CD.

I'm wondering if I have a read only capability for DVDs on my Toshiba. How do I tell?

Thanks again.

Bob
