Cooperdale Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 (edited) I have a problem: since installing Windows 7 64 bit I can't burn iso's to a cd-r anymore. Each time I do, halfway through I get an error and the cd is good for the trashcan. This happens with any cd brand I've tried and any iso file. If I burn the iso with another software, such as CDburnerXp, it works. I can't for the life of me understand what happened, I'm a very faithful imgburn user and I never had problems... Here is an excerpt of the log file: http://www.deathless.it/imgburn.log.txt Edited September 23, 2009 by Cooperdale
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Try slowing the write speed down, your drive is just erroring out because it has an issue with the disc (or perhaps there's a driver issue). What chipset does your motherboard use, or more importantly, what chipset does the controller your drive is connected to use?

What chipset does your motherboard use, or more importantly, what chipset does the controller your drive is connected to use? But how come it happens with different brands? And always at mid-session. I will try slowing it down. The chipset is x58, and the controller is Intel ICH10R. The drive is connected to a sata port. Edited September 23, 2009 by Cooperdale
mmalves Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Install this (reboot if asked) and then install this (also reboot if asked).
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 'Brands' don't mean much, you have to look at the dye/mid for the disc. ImgBurn lists that info in the box on the right. I can see you're using MCC there, which should be fine. Personally, I always go for Taiyo Yuden now.
Cooperdale Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 Install this (reboot if asked) and then install this (also reboot if asked). The system is fully up to date, drivers and bios. The burning works if I lower the speed (I tried 4x), I still don't understand why it works at full speed with other software though. Is there any setting worth modifying?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 You don't need to go that low, just use 24x or something. The failure is nothing to do with the software (or a setting), your drive (and its firmware) is in complete control.
