Nogo with that either. And, as before, the SAME EXACT HARDWARE with the SAME EXACT MEDIA burns perfectly when running XP. This is very frustrating - there is no reason this shouldn't work. Has anyone gotten imgburn working on Windows 7 on a real machine, not a virtual session? - litz

Did a fresh 7048 install, and same exact issue, same exact symptoms, same exact results. The log is identical to above, or I'd post it. Happens with USB, 1394, and direct connect PATA. Any more ideas? - litz

As noted before, the same thing has been tried before with the same results : I 17:22:11 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started! I 17:22:11 Media Center Edition (6.1, Build 7000) I 17:22:11 Total Physical Memory: 3,537,352 KB - Available: 2,827,200 KB I 17:22:11 Initialising SPTI... I 17:23:18 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 17:23:18 Found 1 DVD

Soon as the drive is finished burning this 7048 disc (after having to move it to another PC, since I didn't want to reboot the Win7 box again) I'll see about giving that a whirl. However, I can tell you right now, it's a waste of time and effort. I've already previously done that, and I got the same exact error where it failed on sectors 0-31 and then went downhill from there. As I've already state (twice) - I get the SAME ERROR whether the drive is connected to the PATA port, a USB enclsoure, OR a 1394 enclosure. The logfiles also are (as stated twice already) identical - except for drive location - no matter where the drive is connected. - litz

Your system is reporting that the drive is on a 1394 (firewire) interface?! Something isn't quite right there... you might want to double check the drivers are all working properly. I've tried builds 7000 and 7048 via vmware and it's been fine for me. That particular log file was with it on a 1394 external enclosure. I see the same issue with a USB external enclosure, and with the drive connected directly to an IDE port on the Asus motherboard. The log files are identical with the other connections; it just so happens the 1394 log was the one I pasted in the opening post. The only difference is just the location of the drive is different. All of the above options work when I boot the system in XP SP3, and select the same version of Imgburn to attempt a burn. As to the above comment about the "crap media" -- the media is not at fault. As stated in my opening post, this problem occurs no matter what kind of media is used, and no matter what type of connection is used to connect the BenQ to the PC. And as stated, none of the problems occur when the same exact hardware configuration is booted in XP SP3. - litz

Asus P5-GZMX ... good ol' Intel chipset. Nvidia graphics card, though. The same exact hardware configuration (with imgburn) works perfectly under XP. - litz

Having problems under Windows 7 (the 7000 beta). Imgburn simply fails - it sees devices, but will not burn anything to any device. I've tried multiple brands of drives and media, and multiple methods of connection (direct IDE, SATA, USB, Firewire) -- all fail. The error message is exactly the same no matter what I try. The example below is what I get (just alter your device connection for the other attempts) : I 14:09:08 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started! I 14:09:08 Media Center Edition (6.1, Build 7000) I 14:09:08 Total Physical Memory: 3,537,352 KB - Available: 2,827,200 KB I 14:09:08 Initialising SPTI...
