Isn't that the same drive / model you've always had? Yes, HP sent me a free replacement for my laptop. It should be brand new. Do you think it's a problem with the make of DVD drive?

I went ahead and got a brand new burner only to have 1) A DVD skip at the end of the movie 2) Now I get an error when I attempt to burn.

The drive started working for a little bit, but then my DVDs start to skip towards the end. Now, I get an "I/O error" when I attempt to burn, and it fails. Here is my latest log, I just wanted to see if there was any hope before I invest in a new burner. I 18:20:21 ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 started!

I have switched to Verbatim DVDs and am still having the same problem, as mentioned before, with the lead-in. ImgBurn continues to get stuck on the lead in function. Any suggestions?

Hello, I am new to the forum, and have been searching the forum on problems with ImgBurn or the computer sticking on the writing Lead In process. I have just started having this problem when I got a new computer. When I try to burn a disc straight from an ISO to ImgBurn, it stops on the Lead In process, and doesn't start back up or eject the failed disc (I've waited over 45 minutes), and I have to restart the computer. When I restart, I am able to burn the ISO to disc. Can somebody tell me what the problem is, because I hate that I have to make a coaster before actually getting a working disc the next time around. (I have been using good quality discs: Verbatim & Taiyo Yuden) Thanks for the help! Here is the log: I 14:09:30 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!
