Bought a pack of Verbatin DVD-R, tried again and was successful!

I had to uncheck the verify option, because the burning process would always get stuck at that step. I'll update to SP2 and check firmware and see what happens.

Yea I burned it on the Gateway too. Here's the log I 21:33:28 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started!

Yes the problem is still there after reboot. Though I had this problem earlier with regular DVD's and the reboot solved it. Could it be that my laptop is older? It's a 2006-07ish Gateway laptop so it's pretty old. Maybe it can't read DVD+R DL which is what I used.

Ok the burn(Win 7 hehe) was successful according to Img Burn, but my laptop is not reading the disk. So I checked it on another laptop and it was reading it fine. I then popped in a few other cd's I had and my laptop i reading them no problem either. Any help on getting my laptop to read the disk?
