Okay, its been fixed. It turns out all my blu-ray burner needed was to be cleaned - I ended up using a Blu-ray drive Laser Lens cleaning disc. Everything works fine now. I want to Thank everybody who helped me fix this problem.

Much Appreciated

Do you have any discs that aren't 'VERBAT-IMe-000' ?

If you don't already have one, get yourself a BD-RE disc for additional testing.

Can I please get you to right click the drive selection box and select 'family tree'. Close the prompt that comes up and then copy+paste everything from the log window. Thanks.

All I ever have is the Verbatim Model 97238. So, at your request, I just ordered some "Memorex 25GB 2X BD-RE Model 05502" discs - they should arrive on 3-25.

I clicked on the 'family tree' - here's a screencap of the popup:

I'm attaching the entire logfile to this Post only because it's so long.

Okay, I tried to burn a new disc, while in Safe Mode, using ImgBurn. First I tried burning my BDMV files onto the disc. Then I tried to burn an .iso Image onto a disc. Both attempts completely failed - giving me the same popup error messages as before.

Here's a copy of the logfile:

I ordered a drive cleaning disc from Amazon.com but it won't be here for another week and a half.

As far as the initial error message, "Invalid Address For Write" - what does it mean, why do you say it's weird.

March 18, 2014

I bought a new pack of Verbatim 25GB BD-R Model 97238 - and burned with one of them at lowest speed possible (4x). I still encountered the same problem, so something else must be wrong. I know it's easy for people to just say - "Oh well, it's probably a bad drive, so go buy a new one." But I can't afford another one right now - so I'm more than willing to try every conceivable troubleshooting step people can come up with.
