Tried some fixes I found on here and elsewhere and nothing seems to work.

When trying to write and img file to disc (audio cd), I get an I/O Errror. Medium Error. Write Error.

Here is the log. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here's your most likely culprit:

I 16:16:50 Destination Media Type: CD-R (Disc ID: 97m26s66f, CMC Magnetics Corp.)

 

Don't use CMC Magnetics discs.  CMC is the absolute bottom of the barrel optical disc manufacturer.  Their media fails more often than it works. 

 

Try Verbatim DataLife Plus/AZO CD-R, if you can find it.

So recently I got a new laptop and installed ImgBurn on it. On my previous laptop I had no problems using ImgBurn with dozens and dozens of these CMC discs. So I figured I needed to tweak some setting or another to make the program work on my new computer correctly. But maybe they worked fine with the old one but new one doesn't like them? I'll definitely grab some DataLife Plus' and give them a shot!

Any other possible culprit you can think of?

Thanks dbmiter for the suggestion!

So, you're saying you used these CMC discs before on a different computer, but on this new laptop, this is the first time you're trying to use these CMC discs?  If that's the case, your laptop probably has a different kind of optical disc burner in it than you were using before in the other system.  And that different new drive has a conflict using the CMC's.  No drive is guaranteed to like any kind of media, even the quality stuff.  However, you're better off always using the quality stuff over CMC.  CMC's will be unreadable sooner than quality discs like Verbatim DataLife Plus/AZO.  Plus there can be compatibility issues trying to play CMC's on players.

 

I would first try to remove the known problematic CMC discs from the equation and try high quality Verbatim DataLife Plus/AZO blanks.  Most CMC problems tend to go away when Verbatim is introduced.  However, be aware Verbatim also uses CMC for their Life Series discs you find in brick and mortar stores, so stay away from the Life Series.  You want the DataLife Plus or the stuff that says it's AZO.  And the good Verbatim you can only find in online stores like Amazon.com.
