ledaswan Posted August 22, 2012 Posted August 22, 2012 Hello, I replaced a motherboard and reinstalled everything, now ImgBurn/Sony BD-RW BWU-500S/Verbatim BD-R gives me invalid address for write. I successfully burned three DVD+R discs, without any problems. With the old motherboard, I burned 100+ of these same BD-R discs (~5% failure rate, which seemed high, but better than the 100% failure I get now). I tried creating an image first (successful) and burning that (unsuccessful). I tried lower write speed and using ASPI, instead of SPTI. I also tried a different job using source files on a different physical hard drive. I also udated ImgBurn v2.5.5.0 to ImgBurn v2.5.7.0. Same result for all these attempts. Looking at the old logs, the Sony drive used to be detected as an ATA device: ... 21:14:02 -> Drive 2 - Info: SONY BD RW BWU-500S 1.63 (S:) (ATA) Now it is detected as a SCSI device: ... 02:12:30 -> Drive 2 - Info: SONY BD RW BWU-500S 1.63 (S:) (SCSI) I searched the forum & most responses to this problem involve switching to different brand discs. These discs worked before. They are from the same batch, purchased together, so it seems ulikely they all suddenly went bad. Thanks for any help.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted August 22, 2012 Posted August 22, 2012 It looks like you've attached your drive to a bad controller (one that isn't optical drive friendly). Hopefully your board has another one... attach the drive to that instead. Beyond that, we'd need to know more about your motherboard - i.e. which make/model it is so we can work out which chipsets are available on it.
ledaswan Posted August 23, 2012 Author Posted August 23, 2012 Hi, thanks for your reply. Yes, that was the problem. I don't have enough SATA connectors, so I bought a Rosewill RC-212 Controller Card. The Bluray drive seemed to work fine reading and burning DVDs, until I got around to burning BD-R discs. I connected it to the motherboard and it burns now. It still seems to have some problems, though. After burning, I have to repeat the eject cycle several times before ImgBurn can verify the written files. Eventually, it works. The motherboard is a Biostar N68S3+, NVIDIA MCP68S chipset. Thanks again.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 If you need to go the PCI card route, get a Silicon Image 3512 chipset based card and put the drive on that. I'm not a fan of any non Intel chipset controller really.
