LIGHTNING UK!

Wow, that's the longest filter drive list I've ever seen! Personally, I'd remove them all but 'redbook' and 'imapi'.

Open up regedit and search for whatever you're seeing in the context menu - i.e. 'Read using ImgBurn'. Don't just delete what you find the instant you find it, make a note of the key it was found under first and let us know via your next reply. If I can improve the uinstaller (perhaps to clear-up after older versions of the app too), I will do. (@eSkRo, sorry, I've hidden your post as I'd prefer useful feedback on the location of these rogue registry entries) I think the problem key will be 'HKCR\DVD\shell\Read using ImgBurn'. This was replaced by 'HKCR\DVD\shell\open.ImgBurn' in newer versions and that's the one it would remove upon uninstall.

You should put the verify speed back on MAX, there's no point in artificially limiting it. If there's a problem reading at max speed, you'd *want* to know about it (even if it works at 8x ok). The burn and verify were both successful. So in your burner at least, there's nothing wrong with the disc. If your wii has a problem with it, maybe that's its problem (or a problem with what you're burning).

Copy + paste the filter driver info too please. You can find the filter driver feature in the Tools menu.

Then you either need decent discs (the whole point of that thread) or another drive.

The thread I linked you to tells you some things you can try.

It would appear they don't work in your new drive, no. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=8000

As I hinted in my previous post, you'll have to extract the contents of each disc image and combine them using the appropriate software. It all depends on what the disc images actually contain as to how easy/hard that will be.

Apart from spelling things incorrectly, I don't know. What problem do you think you're having? The disc appears to have burnt successfully. I can't tell if it's actually readable because you've turned off the 'Verify' option. Let me refer you to this... http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=12200

Your drive isn't initialising the disc properly. If it's just discs from a new spindle, try another spindle. You could also try cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc.

If they verify ok, you could probably just live with it. I don't see how your format has anything to do with it. Formatting doesn't change the internals of the drive and all the program does is send data to the drive. Once that data is in the drive's internal buffer, your machine, OS etc are out of the equation.

'CMC MAG-M01-00' are just a common/cheapo dye sold by loads of different 'brand' names. You'd have more luck (and better burns) if you started to use some decent disc by the likes of Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden.

You haven't shown us a log (once back on SPTI) yet, so how would we know? Do a full burn+verify and then copy+paste *all* the lines from the log window. Don't post a screenshot.

It looks like your drive failed to burn the disc properly or failed to reinitialise the disc properly - I wouldn't ignore either of those issues. Notice that before you got the miscompare errors it said the disc layout didn't match. The layout mismatch is what then caused the miscompares - because the program is making up the data that doesn't appear to be on the disc. Try the 1.02 firmware update for your drive and try the other supported write speeds (start with 8x). 4x might not be the speed that produces the best quality burn. http://www.firmwarehq.com/NEC/ND-4571A/files.html It might be worth cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc too - it's getting on a bit now.

Just snap it to it.

With that card, I doubt it. It should work fine on a PCI card using a Silicon Image chipset (flashed with the 'base' bios) if that's any use to you?

Optical drives don't normally work very well on 3rd party controller cards - especially if they're running in RAID mode. So yeah, try and get the drive off it if possible. Do you really only have 2 onboard SATA ports? That's a little odd for a machine running Windows 7.

What controller is the drive attached to? Right click the drive selection box and select 'Family Tree'. Close the prompt and then copy + paste the family tree lines from the log window. You should install SP1 for Windows 7.

Stop using Patin-Couffin, it fixes nothing.

Put Wine 1.3 on.

Most installers need admin rights. They typically default to installing their files in the Program Files directory and that requires the correct permissions. It's got the manifest file to say it needs admin rights - that would be used by UAC under normal circumstances, but of course these aren't normal circumstances and I guess you don't have a UAC aware OS.

This is not an xbox support forum.

The drive controls the speed so it can only ever be the recorder. What media are you actually using? Have another go at doing a copy + paste of ALL the disc info (from a blank disc).

The first error is the important one... in your case, a 'Write Error'. So the drive had a problem writing to the discs. It's probably 6 or 7 years old now and the discs you're using (RITEKF1) are just a budget (cheapo) MID/dye. Cleaning the drive may help. If it fails to burn all the time now, buy better discs, a new drive or both. You also need to update ImgBurn.

What are you trying to add to the image? I assume it's a data disc rather than a DVD Video one or whatever. Images aren't media specific and all they should need (if coming from a normal DVD+R) is the layer break position... and for that they could just take the total image size and split it in half. Can't they tell you (in detail) what problems they're having? Otherwise, how do they expect you to solve them?!
