First of all, please update ImgBurn

 

Your burner thinks there's no disc inside. Did it work with exactly that same kind of disc before patching? Which firmware version did you patch and using which tool? Does it recognize other blank discs?

Ok i Updated IMGBURN .

and yeah it did work before but i had to load my discdrive like 10x before i could burn a disc

i had SB02 and patched it to SB03 i used IMG burn http://www.firmwarehq.com/drive.php?inq=TS...223F&chk=10

and no its doesnt recognize any other discs

Then you updated the firmware, not patched. As you've said you had to try many times before burning I think your burner is defective. If you can return/exchange it get a Pioneer DVR-216 or 217

Have you restarted the computer after the patch of firmware?

Try to flash it once again - did you get any error message during the latest flash?
