Burn Fails Part Way Through

[dmungman]

Have been using ImgBurn for a while now and love it. Have used it a lot with internal Optiarc drive, without problems, but that drive is now dead. Purchased a new external (USB) device and first three tries to burn have failed at various points ranging from 47% to 70%. Finally tried limiting speed to 6x as I am using 8x media. It still failed. Using 2.5.6.0. See Log below. Any thoughts?

Never seems to retry. ImgBurn and drive are hung. Only way to close is to CTRL + ALT+DEL. App window closes, but ImgBurn process remains active until i unplug the drive.

Seems the drive don't like the discs you are using.

 

If none of the available speeds work, try with some Verbatim media or at least other brands that use other MID/dye rather than CMC MAG-E01-00 that is known to be low quality (very low).

 

Btw, your version of the program is outdated.

Thanks. For what it is worth, I have been using the same media in my Optiarc drive that failed without issue, but it is worth a shot. I'll give Phillips and Verbatim a try. I'll post back with results.
