Chris J. Nelson Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Hi, I'm trying to burn movies to some Memorex DVD-Rs and it's not working. I've tried some Memorex DVD+Rs I had and they worked fine. I was also able to burn two ISOs to the DVD-Rs BEFORE this problem began occurring, so I know my computer/burner are capable of burning ISOs to these discs. When I try to burn a disc, my drive alternate making a very loud spinning noise, then goes quiet. This goes on for about a minute or two, then I get an I/O error. If I click 'Cancel' it asks me if I want to try closing the disc anyway, I click 'No' and nothing gets burned to the disc. Some info: My laptop is an HP dv6000 I am on Windows Vista Home Premium My burner is a Matshita DVD-RAM UJ-851s I a using IMGburn 2.5.0.0 Here's a picture of the error: Here's the log: I 22:56:38 Operation Started!

If any expert could look at my problem and give me advice I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance! Edited November 26, 2009 by Chris J.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Matshita drives are rubbish at the best of times. Use decent media - Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden - to stand the best chance of getting a decent burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
