LIGHTNING UK!

No, it'll be the same as the one you've posted. You should update to the current version of ImgBurn though - 2.5.7.0 came out the other day.

Sorry, no. Check CPU usage during that time. If it's low (taking into account it might only be running on a single CPU core), the drive (or hdd) must be the bottle neck.

Then I guess you're stuck burning those discs at 4x. You might have more luck burning at the higher speeds with Verbatim / Taiyo Yuden media. Cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc may also help.

Output to an image file (ISO) and mount that ISO in a virtual drive program (something like Virtual CloneDrive). Then play the virtual disc with something like PowerDVD (a proper 'licensed' player, not VLC etc which could be cutting corners). The disc burnt and verified ok so that's ImgBurn's job done and dusted. It's only burning what you give it. Once you've tried it in PowerDVD you might find out if it's a generic issue with the files ConvertXtoDVD created or something else.

Try ejecting the tray again manually and reinserting it. That text in the status bar should change.

ImgBurn can't 'rip' (read) xbox games,they're copy protected. It's just a generic disc burner. This isn't an xbox forum, I suggest you ask questions about being banned etc on one that deals with that stuff - this one doesn't.

I mean manually changing the file name in the 'Destination' field within ImgBurn. If you double click the text, it'll flip to a box you can just edit quickly and swap .iso for .bin. Mode 1 and Mode 2/Form 1 have the same 2048 byte 'user data' area... so the data part itself is 100% reliable. You're just skipping the stuff that makes up the rest of a Mode 2 sector (and would normally be included in the BIN file). http://www.multimediadirector.com/help/technology/cd-rom/cdrom_spec.htm

This is the one you want. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=9512

The drive is timing out as it tries to write to the media. The cable doesn't even come into it so it shouldn't be the cause of the problem. If it errors out the same way at all supported write speeds, try giving the drive a clean with a cleaning disc and/or try to burn to another disc from a different spindle. If it still fails after that, your drive could have developed a fault. There's a newer firmware version available btw. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Lite-On/iHAS324%2BB/files.html

It sounds like your download is incomplete. Check the CRC/MD5 of your downloaded file against the one listed on the downloads page of the website. If they *are* the same and it still won't install, it's probably being blocked by your antivirus program.

Try what I suggested then. Oh and please post a log from the next image you create so I can double check what you're doing.

Sorry, I still don't know what you mean. Are you talking about the Log window? It clearly says 'ImgBurn Log' in the title/caption area of the window. It closes just fine for me.

All you can do is make an empty folder. If you aren't already doing so, just make an ISO and then mount it in a virtual drive (like Virtual Clone Drive). Then test PowerDVD by playing the virtual drive. Which version of PowerDVD do you have? Have you install the latest update/patch for it?

Re-read the last line of my post please. I need to know EXACTLY what it says.

So what type of boot image is it? A floppy disc one? The log doesn't include that info so I can't tell if you've configured ImgBurn properly for the type of file you're using. If you extract the boot image from the original disc using ImgBurn you can tell it to populate the fields with the right info.

Put the current release back on, old ones aren't supported. The log shows you that it's waiting for the drive to become ready again. Have you pushed the tray back in? If you have, tell me what message you see in the status bar of the main window.

That guide is for Windows Vista / 7, there's a different one for XP. That aside, if ImgBurn knows it's making a bootable disc (you haven't post a log so I can't tell) and the resulting disc isn't bootable, you must have made a mistake somewhere - either in ImgBurn's configuration or when you built the bootable image.

The program will call it *.bin by default but if you manually change it to be *.iso, it'll automatically (or perhaps after a prompt?) convert from Mode2/Form1 to Mode1.

What tools window?

Because the track on the disc is in Mode 2 format and they don't belong in ISO files. You're using an old version of ImgBurn btw.

Sorry, I've no idea then.

Please post a log so I can see the problem in action. The program always sends data to the drive as quickly as it can, so something else is causing the problem if it's not going at the speed the drive says it should be going at.

Could it be that you're just seeing the bit where ImgBurn cycles the tray after a burn and before a verify?

It also works fine for me in Ubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 with Wine 1.5.1.
