Hi I have never had any problems burning dvd+r DL as I always used Verbatim 2.4. Now I can only get Verbs x8 (Version 3) I have just produced 20 coasters. I am using a laptop with a Matshita DVD-RAM UJ-851S ATA Device (firmware 1.5 I think) Can anyone suggest any DVD's that should work. I also have a desktop computer but it is IDE (yet again, I think?) The following are the available options: LG GH22NP20 AUAU 22x DVD±R, 12x DVD±DL, DVD+RW x8/-RW x6, DVD-RAM x12, IDE Black OEM Samsung SH-S222A/BEBE 22x DVD±R, 12x DVD±DL, DVD+RW x8/-RW x6, DVD-RAM x12, IDE Black OEM LiteOn IHAP122-19 22x DVD±R, 8x DVD±DL, DVD+RW x8/-RW x6, DVD-RAM x12, IDE Black OEM with Nero LiteOn IHAP322-32 22x DVD±R, 8x DVD±DL, DVD+RW x8/-RW x6, DVD-RAM x12, IDE Black Retail with Nero As you might have guessed I know nothing about the inside of computers Any help much appreciated Kieran

The only ones I can get hold of is the LG (GE20LU10) DVD±RW Dual Layer Burner, what do you think of it? or HP-DVD1040E EXTERNAL DVD REWRITER DVD+-R/RW/RAM/DL/LS USB2.0 RET +20X8X -20X6X DL+8X-8XR12X HPDVD

What external drives are recommended these days?

What is going on, I am using Verbatim, and this is the third coaster this week. Any help much appreciated. The log is attached I 21:55:35 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started!
