wow i actually fixed all of my coasters that wouldnt finalize....well atleast we figured out its my burner

just a quick update...put the discs that wouldnt finalize into my OLDER (but less used) liteon burners on my desktop and manually finalized them...and they definatly are working...

thanks ill start looking tomm to see what i find

an actual external drive. i bought it like this...one of the ex-dub drives by liteon

thanks. ill give my other computer a try to see if it makes a difference... its just weird that sometimes it will burn the iso completely fine...then it starts to give errors.. any suggestions on another external burner for my laptop?

wow really? it seems to work fine with normal dvdr and cds....

now i cant burn ... here is the error i get W 01:53:19 Device Arrival Detected! I 01:53:20 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 01:53:25 Found 1 DVD-ROM/CD-RW and 1 DVD

ok just finished got the same error while trying to close the final session also it got an error at 50% but i pressed retry and it started again... E 00:37:40 Failed to set L0 Data Zone Capacity!

its weird because the first time i burned a with a sony DL and worked perfect...2nd time couldnt finalize... that was my last of the sonys... (bought a 2 pack) went out today and got verbatim and i burned successfully the first time... after that i burned and it got to 100% but couldnt finilize the disc. now when i try to burn it cannot set L0 or something like that.... now i just tried to burn to get the log and now its working. so i will see what happens at the end of this burn and update but why would it work sometimes and not others? i updated my firmware AND drivers... update u guys in 40 mins
