    I feel silly...

    Well, I went out to Office Max and bought a pack of HP dvd+rw DVDs, tried
    them out and the burner worked perfectly. I promptly burnt 3GB of
    back-up without a problem!!!

    Thanks for the hints. I'm new to DVDs and didn't realize that one DVD
    media is not necessarily the same as another; or the fact that the little
    "-" or "+" on the label means something important. (:->)
