Thanks a lot for your answer.

Hi everyone, I finally decided to sign in, in order to post this message, because i'm getting crazy day after day. There is a few months, i succeeded in burning 2 "DVD+R DL Verbatim 2.4x - MKM 001". Yesterday, i wanted to continue and tried to burn 2 more discs. But i got a failure during these two tests, getting this message : "Session Fixation Error Writing Lead Out". Here's the log of the first experience : 13:18:52 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started!

So before testing again, I read all the topics concerning this kind of issue ; i cleaned the drive (with a cleaning DVD) ; i reinstalled the firmware of my driver, and i tried to burn a 2nd disk (same spindle), writing at this time at 1x, but the result remains the same (and the 2nd log is quite identical). What do you think about it ? I need your advice. Should-i try another test (3rd coaster ??) or should-i think to buy another burner tomorrow ? Thanks a lot four your help. Kind regards, Michael
