DVD Burner reads but does not write

[shifthappens]

Having problems burning files to CD-RWs and cannot erase after burn failure. Managed to erase discs on another PC with no problem. Burner replacement seems like the problem fix. Any other options? Thanx

In the bit of log you posted, I can't see any erase failures? (I haven't checked the attachment)

 

As the drive is failing to write to the disc, I'd probably go for a full erase rather than a quick one.

 

If that doesn't work or it still fails to write to the disc once it has completed, buy some different (better?) CD-RW discs.

 

You could try a different burner if you want to, but buying other discs is usually cheaper and easier.
