Ok, thanks again guys! I gotcha, but I was already planning on buying a new computer.

Thanks for your reply, it helps me a lot. So if I understand first I have to update the firmware on my drive. Where do I have to look to do this? At second I have to clean the drive (doesn't sound that weird because I haven't used it for over 6 months because of a exchange program. And if that doesn't work I just have to let my roommate burn it and I will have to buy a new pc. At last the 2 discs I used I could consider useless now? Thanks again.

Hello, I hope my questions for you guys are not that dumb, but I am just really new in this world. I hope there is somebody here that could help me. My roommate is doing this for a longer time, so now I wanted to try it on my own and he explained it too me. Today I tried to but a xbox 360 game on a dvd+r (double layer platinum 8.5 8x speed) I will just give you guys as much as information, since I don't know what you need to help me with this problem. So I downloaded crysis 2 from torrentz.eu and i found a right link. I unpacked it with winRAR and opened it with ImgBurn. I put this number in at the settings: 1913760. But the speed at 1x. All the settings where the same my roommate his settings. I started to overwrite the files to the cd, but after two minutes it stopped and gave me an error. This is the log of it: I 19:03:53 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started!

I 19:10:05 Shutting down SPTI... I 19:10:05 ImgBurn closed! So I tried it another time and it did the same after a minute. So I suppose 2 cd's are broke now and I don't know what the problem is, neither does my roommate. My Dvd player has dual layer. So I can't think about something else then the torrents I downloaded weren't good or the settings of ImgBurn aren't the way they are suppose to be. Otherwise I really don't know beacause I don't have the knowledge about this subject. So I hope somebody could help me with it, if this is already asked here on this forum I appologize and will be happy with a link to that thread. Thanks.
