stancati Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 hello everyone, this is my first time posting, im a newbie, hopefully someone knows what my problem is. i am trying to back-up an xbox 360 game, but i cannot seem to get imgburn to work. i am using imgburn 2.4.2.0. and i have bought some Verbatim DVD+R DL 8.5GB 8X i start the program up and choose the appropriete DVD file and then when i insert the blank DVD it says Disc Not Empty i tryed updating my firmware and uninstalling and re-installing imgburn and i made sure that my burner IS capable of burning DL discs, but nothing seems to work the only thing i can think of, is that maybe the discs are no good, cause i can use NERO to burn DVD's and CD's with no problems Here is the info from the window on the right side of imgburn... TSSTcorp DVD+-RW TS-L532B DE04 (ATA) Current Profile: DVD+R DL Disc Information: Status: Complete Erasable: No Sessions: 1 Supported Write Speeds: 2.4x, 4x, 6x, 8x DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Status: Complete That's the problem. Your drive doesn't think they're 'empty', it's thinks they're 'complete' - i.e. have been burnt to. btw you should be using 2.4.4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynthia Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Seems others also have issues with this burner. I talked on the phone to another Dell tech who said the drive does not support dual layer discs. http://club.cdfreaks.com/f105/tsstcorp-ts-...er-help-227300/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmalves Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 You could try with the 2.4x Verbatim blanks, but it would be better if you could get a Pioneer/Optiarc burner in an external enclosure of your choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynthia Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Might be that the burner could need a run with a cleaning disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stancati Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Might be that the burner could need a run with a cleaning disc. burner is fine, it just will not except DL discs, tryed my brothers ACER Desktop, everything works fine, so im happy, its time for a new laptop soon anyways thanks for all your help guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
