Reboot the computer in Safe Mode then run the firmware upgrade. Remove any disc from the drive and close the tray before running the firmware upgrade. Reboot after it has finished upgrading the firmware.

In the Options tab, tick 'Include Hidden Files' and 'Include System Files' (the option 'Include Archive Files Only' should be unticked) and press the Calculate button again. It should then display the correct number of files/folders that will be burned

Data couldn't be read from your hard disk, so you should scan it for errors. Have you changed/updated drivers on this laptop after buying it?

That happens when reading an original Wii game disc? I'm asking because Wii game discs are protected and can only be read by certain drives, and at a very slow speed

Thank you all, it was a great day and got even better with your messages

Which program are you using to transfer your game(s) to the PS2's hard disk? WinHIIP and hdl_dumb both are capable of reading PS2 CDs and DVDs directly from the computer drive.

ImgBurn burns data as it is, i.e. it doesn't change anything. The DVD slideshow you've made uses DVD-Video format, which is the standard format for DVD discs that any standalone DVD player can play. On the other hand, standalone recorders (which support DVD-RAM) expect the DVD-RAM to have a different file/folder structure in order to play from them. You'll have to look in the device's manual or search for other users' experiences on how to make a DVD-RAM in the format that your player will accept. Or, the much easier way, buy some DVD+RW/DVD-RW and you'll be able to rewrite them just like with DVD-RAM

Have you used the "VIDEO_TS folder (8 files - total 3.57 GB)" as the source folder? Go to DVD Flick's folder (usually C:\Program Files\DVD Flick) and see if you can find ImgBurn's log file. If you can find it, paste here the log from that burn.

You can integrate SP3 on your Windows XP CD, have a look here

Slower doesn't mean a better burn, especially on newer drives like yours. Try burning at 8x or 12x and you might get better burns

ImgBurn is just a burning tool, i.e. it burns the content as it is, so it's not a problem that can be solved with ImgBurn. That being said, I've had many DVDs done through DVD Shrink that had missing audio, so you'll have to look in Shrink to see if the track(s) are detected and selected (for some of my DVDs it wouldn't detect the audio tracks ).

The .dvd file should tell ImgBurn where to place the layerbreak. You can confirm this by looking at the Sectors field of the Image Information box: it'll show the layerbreak position between parenthesis, e.g. (LB: 2,084,960)

What about a "SCSI and RAID controllers" branch, is there one? If so, what are the devices under it?

That isn't possible with ImgBurn since ImgBurn needs direct access to the drive (i.e. via SPTI/ASPI/etc). Maybe you can accomplish what you want by using iSCSI

Do you remember the exact error message you're getting? Make sure your Pioneer burners are using the latest firmware available. Also make sure you're using the latest drivers available for the chipset/storage of your motherboard. What brand/type of media are you using? Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden manufacture the best blanks so try with them too.

The options are there for those who need them for different types of needs. You see, in Build mode, when ImgBurn detects DVD-Video content (the standard format that all DVD players can play), it asks you to confirm it's a DVD-Video (if it's needed) and makes the appropriate changes in order to make the disc most compatible with any DVD player in the world. In Write mode (i.e. burning from ISO image) then ImgBurn doesn't change anything at all, as ISO images are supposed to be burned to a disc as they are. That's why we tell users to look at the source/generating application

Throw that disc in the trash and try burning another. Burn at 8x or 12x (look in the Device tab) for best results. If you're not using Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden blanks this error might happen again

Install DCBass Source and try again

Wryter: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer Please look again as there should be at least the Policies key under CurrentVersion. As for CurrentVersion\Explorer, that's a different key and unrelated to this problem The NoDriveAutoRun value allows you to disable AutoRun on certain drive letters, so if I were you I'd delete this option (you can also use TweakUI to control this in its AutoPlay section). Also look in the Group Policy Editor (Start -> Run -> type gpedit.msc and hit OK) at Administrative Templates -> System -> Disable AutoPlay option, under both Computer Configuration and User Configuration. too-cool: use Google to find a DVD Shrink version that's modified to burn with ImgBurn

ImgBurn burns the data as it is, i.e. it doesn't change anything. If it doesn't play then it's coming from other software in that way already. Use Media Player Classic Homecinema or VLC Media Player and you can play the DVD from the VIDEO_TS.IFO file just like it'll play on your standalone player. You can then test how the DVD will behave

Are you sure it's a DVD writer? What's the model? What does ImgBurn show in the Log (something like "Found 1 CD-RW/DVD-ROM!")?

If you go to... HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer and... HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer what's the NoDriveTypeAutoRun value on each one of them? The default value is 0x00000091 (145).

Those are proprietary formats that are not supported by ImgBurn. Use the program that created them to convert those images to BIN/CUE or ISO images and you'll be able to burn with ImgBurn

You probably need an UDF 2.50 driver for Windows XP, so have a look at this thread to find out how to install one
