Device Not Ready (No Reference Point Found)


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I am trying my best to burn some Bluray discs from an ISO file. It worked once, using ImgBurn but hasn't since. Every time since then I keep getting the message "Device Not Ready (No Reference Point Found). I'm using a Kanguru external Blu-ray disc burner with its approved BD-R disc type, single layer, 25GB by Maxell. Please help! This is beyond frustrating.

 

This is what is coming up in the ImgBurn Log:

W 10:37:49 Device Arrival Detected!

I 10:37:49 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices...

I 10:37:49 -> Drive 1 - Info: MATSHITA BD-CMB UJ141ES 1.00 (E:) (ATAPI)

Thank you for advising me!

 

So I updated it, restarted the computer, got the notice that it was installed and then the same issue. Any other suggestions?

 

 

Try again after updating to the latest firmware.

This is a drive/firmware/media combo issue and nothing to do with ImgBurn.

If your drive can't initialise those discs then you'll have to try some others.

 

If it fails with everything you should consider it faulty and get a new drive.
