I've burned at least 30 Dual layer discs of 360 backups using Imgburn successfully in the past year. I took a hiatus the past 3 months and revisited it this past week. I used these http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GHWRIK/ref=oss_product Verbatim discs as I have always done. I updated to the new Imgburn update (potential problem). I even re-downloaded the latest drivers for my DVD drive, even though I'm sure I already had them as the latest release were from early January of last year. I've just gone through about 7 coasters trying make a backup. I've seen a variety of error messages, but this one appears to be the latest:

 

"Set L0 Data Zone Capacity Failed! Reason: Program Memory Area Update Failure"

 

After searching various forums, I learned this is usually the result of using low-quality DL discs. However, I'm using the exact same ones that worked previously for me within the past year, meaning it's probably something else.

 

Here is the log I get:

Have you tried the 4x write speed?

 

On the package, where are the discs made? Singapore/Taiwan/India/China.

It could be some bad discs in the spindle. I have had spindles that were the pure jokes with Verbatims. You have another package to try with?

 

I would also try to run a lens cleaning disc.

 

Program Memory Area Update Failure

I've seen this error message on Lite-Ons to be associated with the sources sector size. Have you tried to burn another project?

Actually I think I'm going to try to run a lens cleaning disc. Is there one you'd recommend?

 

Also, I tried putting in an HP DL disc just to see what would happen, and as I try to open up the E: folder, I get a message that says, "Windows cannot read the disc in Drive E:/" "Make sure the disc uses a format that Windows recognizes. If the disc is unformatted, you need to format it before using."

 

Could I have run into problems with with my DVD DL drive when I re-downloaded the drivers? Perhaps its not recognizing the drive as dual-layer compatible for some reason.

 

I have an HL DT ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N ATA Device.

Buy a cheap (not he ones that have sound checks and that type of stuff).

Most likely the disc is still open and that's why you other reader can't read it.
