ckhon Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 I am having problems getting my imgburn to burn to empty discs. I keep getting disc not empty message and this is what is displayed.

Please help!
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 If that's a blank disc, your drive is misreporting all the info. Find a disc you've burnt recently that worked and put that in the drive. Then copy + paste the disc info again please.

Then copy + paste the disc info again please. This is a disc that I recently burned using IMGBURN. Same batch of discs. I have uninstalled imgburn a few times and even used older versions. It works when it wants to. I have no problems using DVD shrink or other applications, just imgburn lately. Hoping my burner isn't burning out! Thank you very much for your help, hopefully it is an easy fix.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 Try cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc. Drives are only cheap now so it might just be worth getting a new one anyway and save yourself time messing about with one that may never work properly again anyway.
