I/O Error

[bloosnail]

Hello, I'm new to using ImgBurn. I had been burning DVD's for about a week and suddenly I was getting an I/O Error about every other burn. I was burning Sony DVD-R at 16x, 12x, and 8x. What's the problem? Any help is appreciated. Here's the log:

Try cleaning the drive.

 

If that doesn't work and you can't get a decent burn at any speed, try using some other discs - Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden.

 

If they don't work either, buy a new drive.
