Thanks Lightning! The first thing I did was buy a CD/DVD cleaner disc so that's off the table. I'll Google Talyo Yuden (Victor JVC) and see if I can buy them in Canada. Should I be using DVD+rs instead? Price is a factor for me.

Well, I just successfuly burned a CD-RW...so i guess my optical drive isn't cooked.

Try the other speeds avilable. You already tried 4x and no success. Update ImgBurn to current version. I also tried 2X without success earlier.

This time I didn't get past 0% done. Something tells me my optical drive is cooked.

Sorry for the wait but I tried again. I 12:10:13 ImgBurn Version 2.5.6.0 started!

Ok...I'm REALLY green at this stuff...sorry. I guess I have to try again and burn a disc to get the log.

I'll try but at the moment I don't know how... Thanks for replying!

Hello... a newbie here, I'm all of a sudden having problems burning to disc. At first I got the message "no seek complete" I came across this site and discovered it's probably a dirty drive so I bought a cleaner disc yesterday and used it. Today however it failed again but this time the reason was "Logical Block Address Out Of Range" I have no idea what that means. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Koukol
