The drive burns any data that you send to it (i.e. it doesn't analyze or even care what's being burnt).
My point exactly. If the data in the ISO is bad to begin with then wouldn't the burn that results would be bad as well?
My guess is that you had a few bad blanks. Also, have you tried burning at other speeds? 8x would be a good one to try.From my first post I tried 3 different batches of Verbatim +R and also tried at different speeds.

Okay, I just downloaded a copy of SuSE 10.3 which is a 4.0GB image and it burned without a single problem.
Could something be wrong with the ISO file from MS? Is there some way to check for errors? I am really at a loss now.
Please any suggestions would be appreciated.

Have a look in the Mini-FAQ for Samsung DVD writers, specially the bit about incompatibility with certain VIA chipsets. I also was having problems finalizing DVD+R/+RWs (not DVD+R DLs though), bitsetting didn't work and couldn't update the burner's firmware, and only after reading that mini-FAQ that I saw my motherboard has the incompatible VIA chipset
I'll check out the link. I am running an EVGA Nvidia based 680i SLI motherboard & chipset. Thanks.

The samsung drives are prone to error out like that on +R media.
Mine has been problem free for months... until today.
Try turning the 'DVD+R Reserve Track' option in the settings (Write tab) on.I tried that as well and same error happens.
Might be cheaper for me to purchase a different unit than to toss all these +R media

Maybe try closing the disc manually thru the tools menu.
That just brought up an I/O error box:

This is a typical log file for the failure that I get:

Thank you Lightning UK for all your efforts with ImgBurn.
I have replaced all my other burning apps with this single one and couldn't be more pleased.
Keep up the great job and check your PayPal account!

I take it that the MCC-003 are the -R media? I suppose that is what I'll have to do. The only thing that bugs me is that ALL other ISO images burn without any problems except for this one particular file. I just don't get it. #39;(
