Long Time at Writing LeadIn - How Long to Wait?


ArchiMark

Recommended Posts

Trying to write an iso file to a CD...about 190 MBs...

 

On first try, I waited for a long time (more than 30 minutes...) after it showed "Writing LeadIn...". A while after that I terminated the program as nothing seemed be happening...

 

Now on second try with new disk, and this time, I hear more sound from my external CD drive than first time. Makes a sound, then quiet for a second, then makes sound, then quiet, been doing this for about 45 minutes now and still shows "Writing LeadIn..."....and 0% complete.

 

So, my questions are:

 

A. Is this typical to wait this long for this first step?

 

B. Should I wait longer or just terminate program again?

 

C. If I terminate and want to try again, are there any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Mark

This is a support issue, not a bug.

 

Now it's in the correct section, please post a log so we can see what's what (as per the pink box up the top).

 

Writing the leadin should take a matter of seconds, not minutes. For yours to be taking so long, the drive must have an issue with the media you're using. Posting the log (as mentioned above) will tell us more. Just copy+paste it from the Log window.
