Installed the JMB driver as suggested. The driver installed fine, no errors or warnings from device manager, but it couldn't find any of the drives attached to the controller. Went to the Gigabyte site and downloaded the latest driver for the GIGABYTE SATA2 Driver (V1.17.50.2, dated 2008/09/29). It also installed fine, and I am able to see the drives. It shows up as a GIGABYTE GBB36X Controller, and installs a driver from JMicron Technology Corp (hmmm... lol). Anyways, I have burned a couple of BluRays, and successfully verified them, so it looks like it is working fine now. I'm not sure why the original Microsoft drivers were having issues with the BluRay drive, and not with the DVD ones, but we're up and running now. Thanks very much for your help. G

Yeah, I have one of them on my SAN box in the basement I'm using for my VM cluster. I have a couple of those spare. I'm using them on 2 main media servers - with port multipliers, so I can get all 20 disk spinning on them. I have 2 or 3 Gigabyte boards with the jmicron on it working fine - but mainly for disks, rather than DVSs. I'll have a go at getting the driver done later today. If that makes no difference, then I'll put in one of the SiL cards and see where we go from there. G

Yeah, I am out of ports on the mobo... 6 on the ICH10, 2 used for boot, 4 for RAID5. I'll try the driver in the morning and see if it makes a differece. If not, I can probably steal a 2 port SATA PCIe card from another box for a bit and do some tests. G

Motherboard is a Gigabyte EP45-UD3R with the F12 BIOS. The BD Writer is connected to the 'Gigabyte SATA 2 chip' on the motherboard (which I believe is a rebranded JMicron device). Both my DVD burner and BD burner are connected to this via SATA. The HD-DVD drive is connected to the same chip via PATA (it's a PATA drive). Windows updates are up to date as far as this evening. Windows is showing the devices to be connected to a standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller (BD on channel 0, DVD on channel 1). There are no third party drivers installed. G

Sorry.. Posted file info instead of uploading it. Here's the upload. G ImgBurnF8.log

Yup, with every one - I've not had a good verify on one yet. I've got some more stuff I need to burn off, so will post the log once I'm done. G

I've been having issues since I installed my BD burner a couple of weeks ago. DVDs burn fine on my other DVD drives, and on the BD burner too, but when I burn a BluRay data disk, the burn seems to go without error, but I always get the Verify Failed! - Reason: Layouts do not match When the verify process runs. From what I csn tell, the data on the disk is fine, and can be read, but how do I get the verify process to complete? I'm currently using 2.5.2.0 (had the same issue on 2.5.1.0 too). Is there some setting I need to change somewhere? I 08:20:28 ImgBurn Version 2.5.2.0 started!
