BTW, did you have a drive capable of burning what I'm guessing are XBox games?  Because you need certain drives to do that.  Not all older drives work for that purpose.  Not all newer ones do, either.  And, I don't mean to be condescending, but you do have some means of playing copies, right?  Meaning you can't just copy game discs, pop them in, and expect to play them.

I burned 4 DVD+R (PS2 Games) with it, yesterday I bought a DVD-R (Verbatim) and then it happen. But I will not repair it, I think it's better if I buy a new one.

Have you tried powering off your PC and restarting Windows?  If the drive is external, power it off, restart Windows, and power the drive back on.  See if it resumes showing up in Windows/File Explorer.  Doesn't mean it still isn't working, but, at least, it would show up again.

Yes, I did a manual re-boot, but nothing it's broken now... but it's very old and I'm sadder for the disk.

If I use another pc, can it continue the burn?

Ok, I forced it with a paper clip, becouse my pc was not able to open it and... It looks like my writer is now broken. WTF? explorer.exe doesn't show anymore the disk and my pc is doing a big noise.

I'm burning the same image file for the third time, but now I'm using a Verbatim DVD-R, but it's blocked at 16% and it looks like the writer is not working. Windows Explorer doesn't show any disk and I don't hear any noise now.

What do I need to do?

What happen If I open end close it?
