Beaudine Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I just installed ImgBurn for the first time. The status bar at the bottom states, "Logical Unit not ready, Cause not reportable". I realize that my issue may be vague, since it's a case of "Cause not reportable". I hoped that there might be a suggestion of something that I could try to rectify the situation. Thank you - I 13:09:20 ImgBurn Version 2.5.1.0 started! I 13:09:20 Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium x64 Edition (6.0, Build 6002 : Service Pack 2) I 13:09:20 Total Physical Memory: 8,117,456 KB - Available: 4,891,416 KB I 13:09:20 Initialising SPTI...

Beaudine Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 A nursing tutor gave me several .iso files to help prepare for the certification exam. He suggested that they could be burned onto cd's. I found ImgBurn, and thought it could help me do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 In that case the message means the burner doesn't support/recognise the media you're using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaudine Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 The comment, "Logical Unit not ready, Cause not reportable" occurs before I can even select the files I wish to burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaudine Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 (edited) The last line of the log seems to imply that the burner did recognize the media. Also I have used this burner with 200+ of the same dvd+r's (TDK) Edited July 12, 2010 by Beaudine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Try with other brands, or maybe with DVD-R, but sounds like your burner is defective. You could try a lens cleaning disc to see if it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaudine Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 I appreciate you trying to help me, mmalves, but it doesn't seem like your answer makes sense to me. The burner has no problem with the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 If you're not going to try our suggestions then why did you ask for our help? There's no magic to make it work, if that's what you're thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Take the disc out, does that line in the status bar change to 'Device Not Ready (Medium Not Present)' or something similar? Now put a disc in it again - personally I'd try an original/pressed/silver DVD-ROM or CD-ROM. Keep an eye on the status bar message as you insert the disc. It should change to 'Device Not Ready (Logical unit is in process of becoming ready)' before then changing to being 'Ready'. Those status messages come directly from the drive. If your drive just always reports that it's not ready, there's nothing I / we can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
