Sony's DVD-R not recognized by my laptop Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,

My lenovo IBM laptop does not recognize Sony 4.7 GB DVD-R.  Though the DVD mentions on its casing that it is 1x-16x compatible, however also warns that trying to play this DVD on a non-compatible device could damage the disc or the device.  This is Sony's new technology DVD-R called Accucore. I can play any other CD or DVD, but not this high capacity DVD. Do I need to install some firmware on my laptop to play this DVD-R on my laptop? 

Please advise.

Thank you.
