Thanks for your help. I tried cleaners and they didn't seem to do anything, so I've just gone and got a new internal dvd writer. Haven't tried it on anything yet as I haven't required the use of it yet, but it seems to be doing a better job in common activities than the previous one. Fingers crossed, all my problems are solved. Thanks again. Update-The new Sony DVD Writer does the job!

Hi All, Any help on this one would be great. I'm thinking its a problem with the drive. I've previously been able to burn dvd's onto dvd -r's (with probably 1 in 10 coming up with an error) but now it doesn't allow me at all. I have used many different types of media, but ever since it started being a real problem, I've bought some Verbatim dvd -r's because of their supposed higher level of quality. Still, I get nothing but error messages. I have also made sure my firmware is up to date. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's a typical log: I 13:03:57 ImgBurn Version 2.4.0.0 started!
