For all your comments maybe the bertter it's to buy a new one, cuz I burn a lot discs and this way I solve the problem from the root, I just want to be sure that it's a drive problem and not a configuration issue. I heard that the Pioneers are a very good kind of brand, is this true? any other suggestions?

Your drive still isn't correctly recognizing these discs. If it doesn't work with Verbatim then it's time for a new drive. Also post your Filter Driver Load Order (look in ImgBurn's Tools menu). Ok, here is my "Filter Driver Load Order". =============================================== Filter Driver Load Order - ImgBurn v2.4.4.0 =============================================== Upper Device Filter: redbook Upper Class Filter: [None Found] Device: CD/DVD-ROM Device Lower Class Filter: [None Found] Lower Device Filter: [None Found] Filter Name: redbook File Name: C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\redbook.sys File Version: 5.1.2600.5512 (xpsp.080413-2108) File Description: Controlador de filtros de sonido Redbook Product Name: Sistema operativo Microsoft

No, it's not. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Samsung/SH-S182D/files.html Firmware updated and the SAME PROBLEM!!!! Here is the log. I 22:09:51 ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 started! I 22:09:51 Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 3) I 22:09:51 Total Physical Memory: 2,095,532 KB - Available: 1,707,852 KB I 22:09:51 Initialising SPTI...

I've been using ImgBurn since last year, and everything works just fine, movies, xbox360 games, data, everything burned perfectly, but yesterday starts to send me a write error, no matter if it's a single layer disc, double layer, verbatim, memorex, sony, etc. Is always the same error and in the exactly same time (2%) I dont know if my drive doesnt work anymore, it's a Samsung WriteMaster SH-S182D or what the hell is happening. My firmware is updated, all cables are checked, I even update my bios and format my HD reinstalling WinXP and, guess what? THE FREAKING SAME ERROR!!!! The last solution that I could think now is testing the drive in other PC but I hope that you guys can help me here. P.D. The ImgBurn don't even burn the dvd's, recognize it, TRY to burn, but at 2% pop up the error. I 19:40:39 ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 started!
