I'm going tomorrow to get Verbatims definitely and praying it'll work cause I CANNOT afford a new writer atm Maybe I'll ask for one for my birthday next month. I'd like to have a good one just in general but for right now I hope my writer isn't the issue. And sorry to to be rude lol thank you for the help thus far

Well I read into that tread and I did notice one troubling thing. I am using my laptop that my parents got me for Christmas. It had a double layer burner installed and they said on the thread that laptop drives are gnerally trash does my problem sound like tha kinda of issue or can you even tell? I know I'm deffinately going to return my Sony discs because they're annoying me and I think (hope) that's the issue.

Hey I'm new. I'm just getting into burning game discs from back ups and I'm having some trouble. I bought some Sony DVD+R DL dvds to burn to and I've gotten errors twice. I only have logs to one but they were like Invalid Address For Write errors. Here's the log I have: I 15:57:14 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started!
