Update your burner's firmware (remove any disc and close the tray before updating then reboot after it's finished) and try again. You might also want to try burning at 6x or 8x. If that doesn't work then use a lens cleaning disc on that burner. Thanks, upped to 6x and perfect burn. I will update firmware as well. I appreciate your time.

Using imgburn for xbox360 game and keep getting error midway through burn, see log below. Never had this problem before with imgburn. Cant remember if I updated to new version recently. Also I do use cheap blank media, but have never had this before. Hoping its not my dvd drive. cheers for any help.Should mention this has happened with different images so the problem dosen't lie with the game I 08:25:21 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started!
