ImgBurn indicating Device Not Ready (Tracking Servo Failure) when trying to burn

[Ice]

Greetings,

 

My plextor PX-712SA drive is reading discs (CDs / DVDs) fine. However, when I go to burn a DVD (not a CD) via ImgBurn I get the following: "Device Not Ready (Tracking Servo Failure)."

 

Error log:

Steps taken to hopefully resolve the issue:

* Upgrade the drives firmware to v1.09

* Upgraded STPD to see if it was the cause.

* Removed SPTD.

 

I've tried using both DVD-Rs and DVD+Rs. Neither seem to be picking up. Brands used: Maxell and Dynex.

 

Is my drive dead? Or do I possibly have a rootkit on my system not detected by Norton?

 

Sincerely,

It appears your burner doesn't support those discs....

 

try with Verbatim or JVC or Taiyo Yuden

I have tried each brand of disc and none have worked. (All DVD-Rs this time.)

Then your burner is dead.
