dontasciime----by medium, you do mean discs, correct ? Because Ive tried three different brands. And as for a new burner/writer, what do you suggest ? Whats the price range ? Since my PC is a Dell, I figured Id give them a call too and get an estimate. Thanks for writing me

But there is a disc in the drive and Ive not had problems before...it will play discs and copy Cds though,

Only reason I posted about backups for the Wii and 360, was I same another post about the 360...so I thought I could get some help here. thanks though... and yeah, I got a legal copy of Halo 3, but WalMart, wont take it back. You can send it back to Microsoft and they will replace it for free, but then Im going to be without the game, for at least, a few weeks. I think they are going to accept game repalcements until early 2008, so I may wait and send it back, then.

Thanks for responding to me. I used DVD Shrink with DVD Decrypter, for about three years to backup, copyrightted discs. Ive also used DVDFab for Disney and Sony related stuff. If IMGBURN wont do this, after using Shrink-what do I need to do ? Ive got a few files on my harddrive, that have already went through Shrink that I have as the source and destination is E Drive ( MY DVD burner ) I just dont know what " Device Not Rady, Medium Not Present. " means. Here is the log I 09:40:49 ImgBurn Version 2.3.2.0 started! I 09:40:49 Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 1) I 09:40:49 Total Physical Memory: 523,244 KB - Available: 95,584 KB I 09:40:49 Initialising SPTI... I 09:40:49 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 09:40:49 Found 1 DVD-ROM and 1 DVD+RW! and Ive gotten DVD+R ( Ive got HP, Memorex, and Sonys ) Thanks again...

I have never backed up any of my games. However, after getting a scratched copyof Halo 3, the night it came out, I decided, that I would start doing this. The problem is, I dont know where to begin. Can someone point me in the right direction? Also, what do I need for my 360/Wii to play copied games?

I am new here but not new to the world of backing up DVDs. I have been using DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter for about three years now and I recently had some problems with Decrypter and decided to give ImgBurn, a try, because of all the positive comments, I found about it. However, I dont guess I had a problem with Decrypter afterall. Im having the same problem with ImgBurn. When I select the file, I want to burn, it says Device Not Rady, Medium Not Present. That made me think, that maybe my E Drive ( my DVD burner ) was messed up, so I tried burning a CD with a Roxie program and it worked fine. Also, t hat comment, made me think, that Mediium Not Present-made me think, I didnt have a blank in the E Drive, but I do. Ive even tried several blanks, to make sure it wasnt something with the disc. Can someone....please please please help me. Ive got about 40 DVDs, I need to get backed up and have been behind on doing this, for over 2 months. Thanks in advance to whoever can help me..
