This is nothing to do with ImgBurn, you must just be using discs your drive doesn't support.

 

I assume you are putting the blank CD in the LG drive and not the Sony? Your Sony is only a reader.

 

Update ImgBurn too, yours is out of date.

You have 2 drives yeah...

 

One can burn CDs and DVDs, the other can only read them.

 

'Drive 1' (made by LG) can burn discs, 'Drive 2' (made by Sony) can only read discs.

 

So make sure you're putting your blank discs in the correct drive.
