Ok... Further to my last post, the UI hangs at exactly the same location everytime I try to brun this file to a DVD.... at around 31% complete.... The disk light continues to blink as does the DVD burner light..... I am using an Aopen DVD burner with the latest firmware and have downloaded and installed the latest chipset support from the motherboard vendor (it has a VIA chipset).... After everything stops blinking, you can try to exit the UI (even using task manager to kill the running process) and it says "Waiting on Device Buffer thread".... The only way to exit the UI is to reboot with the power button (I didn't try killing any processes but they all show 0% cpu utilization).... Seems like something is getting stepped on in memory perhaps? Dave

Hi, When burning a 3.7 Gb file (tar.gz) to a DVD using version 2.4.2.0 of Img Burn on Win2K with 2Gb of memory and a DVDRW 18X18X12X DVD reader/writer, everything runs normally until 31% of the file is written. At that point, the UI seems to hang and become non-responsive although the DVD burner continues to burn.... The resulting DVD seems to be readable although it is not verified by Img Burn due to the UI hang.... The only way to get the drawer to open is to reboot the computer as any attempt to kill Img Burn results in a 'waiting on thread' message or 'I heard you the first time, be patient'.... Any clues?
