    Unplug it (burner), turn off the computer, turn the computer back on, turn the computer off, plug it back in, turn the computer back on, and if you are lucky and/or lived a good life, it may work.

    That said, WMP is a "player" and does not burn DVD's! If you want to burn a DVD, then you need to use Windows Explorer, software that came with the DVD burner, or something like Nero...

    Install the DVD(device) drivers. Then Install Nero, one of the best cd/dvd burning software.

    i deeply confirm that not all dvd burner work well because i have tried several dvd burners before which are not well. here i recommend you a good one. Cucusoft DVD/VCD/SVCD Creator Pro is a quite good choice.It enables you to convert and burn any video file directly to VCD, DVD, SVCD, MPEG1 and MPEG2 format. Here I want to share it with you. You can free download it to have a try.
