That is beyond ImgBurn scope. ImgBurn is a burning program. It will not alter anything. What you give in is what you get out, so no transcoding. If you don't know how to burn a particular type of disc, read the Guides.

You followed this Guide? http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=4632 Post the log of that attempt. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=14632

Maybe on other computer but not on that from that log came.

Glad to hear you sorted out. It should work on any of the blue ones. Just update the drivers. Also, there is a BIOS update FB that has in description 3.Enhanced SATA3 RAID mode, though I don't know which one is installed, but might correct something, if you fancy to try it.

Try to move your drive to a regular SATA port, not on a RAID, or try disable the function in BIOS if you don't use RAID at all. Look for the latest drivers for your system's chipset/storage controllers.

Try again with the latest firmware 1.06 http://www.firmwarehq.com/LG/GSA-H55N/files.html

Try with the new firmware A106 http://www.firmwarehq.com/LG/GSA-4163B/files.html Read and follow this http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=8000

Try a higher speed if is available. Look in the right side of main window for the speeds offered on the disc found in drive. A low speed isn't necessary the best speed to burn, you have to find yourself what speed produces the best burn.

If it can't burn the best media on market (aka Verbatim) send it back for replacement.

Try the other speeds, it's 8x rated media after all.

The highlited was the speeds offered. Seams it's getting old and not quite understand the new media. Tryin with other speeds offered is the last option you can try with that drive and probably is the final nail to it's coffin.

Your drive has problem getting the supported speeds. First offers a few, than only one speed is offered. Your drive is getting old and needs replacement.

Just load the image in Write mode and look at image info if it show File Sys: ISO9660(Bootable)

Try again after installing new firmware http://www.firmwarehq.com/Samsung/TS-L532B/files.html A lens cleaning disc in that drive might help. Try burn at 4x. If all fails replace your old drive with a new one.

Most probably your drive is worn-out.

If you are going to use the same media (Disc ID: RICOHJPN-D01-67), I think you did a bad choice. On this forum there is a Drives section that you can consult before making a decision. Or you've should ask for a hint/recommendation. Look here for some tests with that drive on your media. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=10900&st=0&p=98273&&do=findComment&comment=98273 Cynthia, probably could pop in and tell you more about it.

You are left with 6x; 8x; 10x speeds to try. If all fails replace the drive with a new one.

Give a try with Verbatim media. If that still not burn and verify OK, look for a replacement drive.

I'm glad you start to think outside the box. It was obvious from the beginning and we told you that is a drive/firmware/media incompatibility related.

Same if you burn at 4x? Read and follow this http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=8000

As far as I know all DVD recorders make multisession DVD's that's why it can't go to ISO. If you want ISO do as dbminter recommend.

It was a wild guess but you confirmed it. Could be a problem of Samsung drives/firmwares with CMC media. You said it's 8x rated media, why are you forcing it to burn 2.4x when this is not even an option? Give a try with 8x. And don't forget to try other media too. Don't rely on the fact that your computer is an HP and it should burn HP media.

I wonder if your laptop drive is also a Samsung? Laptop drives are not so reliable anyway, regardless of brand. Have you tryed the other speeds? 2.4 isn't an option so try 6x or 8x. 4x was used already. Since you can't find Verbatim, at least, can you try with other brand of discs and MID/dye different from CMC that HP uses?

You still have SP1 on Vista, update to SP2. Leave the I/O to Microsoft. Try burn the Verbatim at 4x. If that still not work, go out and buy yourself a new drive.

Update both drives to latest firmware and try again LG http://www.firmwarehq.com/LG/GH22NP20/files.html Samsung http://www.firmwarehq.com/Samsung/SH-D162D/files.html
