PC World is relatively cheap.

And Yes your DVD Drive must support dual layer writing for those disks to work.

1. I suppose looking on the front of the drive it sometimes says the make, model and type of dvd drive it is.

2. If it is a dell computer or any other package style pc you bought from a company then it would only usually be dual-layer if you asked for it. Could you tell me the type of pc and/or package you bought like the dell deal?

3. If that fails, try right-clicking on the "My Computer" icon on the desktop, then go to "device manager" once in there, go to "DVD/CD-Rom Drives" and it might label your dvd drive with a name, then "dual-layer" or something like that.

Well looks like it's not.

Personally i don't deal with disks anymore, (bad personal experience) I just collect Hard Drives, so much better (for me anyway).
You could always buy a dual-layer dvd drive and put it in your pc. Or you could just stick to single-layer discs.
