Have you tried at 4x? Where are your Verbatim blanks made? It's written in the packaging/box/spindle. You may want to try a lens cleaning disc on that burner.

 

There's also Windows 7 RC1 7100 available now

they are made in singapore...

i am recently aware that it was leaked although i think im just gonna wait for the Official one on the 5th just out of spite...

 

anyone else having issues with win 7 and backing up 360 games

my daughter likes to chew/walk on/ generally terrorize my collection and has already bested my copy of cod4

The error comes directly from the drive, so I really don't think it's related to Windows 7. I've been using it in both x32 and x64 flavours and it works fine

 

Try a lens cleaning disc on that burner and it should work. You may also want to try burning at 4x. If all of this doesn't work then you'll have to look for a new burner.

just tried burning at 1x 2.4x and 4x for FAil fail fail

[Ph3lony]

tried cleaning the drive by hand with a clean cloth for an additional fail...

 

Oh well new burner time can anyone reccomend a good cheap burner that works good with DL

 

do you think trying windows xp would be worth it...

I heard alot of people griping about some service called imapi that you can disable in windows xp that fixes stuff right up

[mmalves]

You can try with XP if you want but my guess is that you'll get the same error

Problem solved....

Seems it was a bunk drive

Replaced the drive with a spare i had lurking around

 

and it works like a champ thank you all for your help

 

and by all i mean mmalves

 

its burning now and hopefully it will finish with no errors if so i will be donating to the img burn project

 

it spit me out a copy of xp sp3 earlier in a min and a half ( old drive) new drive seems to be a bit slower but at the same time it write DL so i can't bitch too much

 

Thanks again
