Medion DVD RW will not write DVD's

Medion DVD RW

I am having problems with a DVD RW drive on my Medion PC bought from Aldi 04/04/03, in the UK every time I put a DVD RW or R disc into the drive it just keeps clicking, and will not load.

Its a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-105 1.21 do I need an upgrade on this drive, I have looked through Google but could,nt find much on Pioneer the aim is to try and copy a DVD, can copy CD's OK.

Are you using the correct type of media for the drive? For example, are you trying to use DVD+R media whilst the drive only accepts DVD-R media?

Thanks for the advice the DVD-R worked I managed to copy the DVD from my hard drive to the DVD-R. But it would not recognize it in my seperate DVD player?.
