First off, thanks for reading and hopefully helping me out. I am a new user of ImgBurn but like the gui right off the bat. I've read about using Verbatim DL discs, but have been having trouble burning using any programs lately. Currently I have memorex DVD+R DL 8x, but have been wasting them trying to burn a disc backup. I promise you it is a backup as the navigation discs are linked directly to my VIN number when ordered from GM. Here's the log when trying to burn a disc:

Thanks for any help you guys can give me. I'm not sure if it's a disc drive problem, power supply problem, overheating etc. however I am unable to burn discs on my laptop either so perhaps these discs are crap. Please help!
