lostnawave Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Im new to this whole thing, but have a friend who has helped me out. I bought a DL dvd burner (external) and am trying to back up my xbox 360 games. Im using a Hp dvd1170e dvd burner and memorex dvd+Rdl discs.... at first i couldnt get the burner to recognize the discs (kept getting the medium not found message), but after a few computer restarts it recognized it.... Now when i try burning the disc i get an error messaging saying Power Calibration Area Error and have searched the forums and have found nothing on this issue... Please any help would be appreciated ! thanks and heres the log ! I 14:33:40 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started!

Cynthia Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Hi and welcome to the forum, lostnawave! I can't find any later firmware for that drive. So your only option is to try the 6x and 8x speeds. If that also fails, switch to a disc brand that your drive likes better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
