Reserving track hang

[outofwork]

ImgBurn has worked flawlessly for a long time until yesterday.  When trying to burn a Blu-ray (not a rewriteable) disc the program hangs forever (?) on "Reserving track..." displayed at the bottom of the window. The strange thing is that it will work every time if I burn a rewriteable disc.  The same exact data is being used.  I have uninstalled ImgBurn, downloaded it from your web site and reinstalled it to no avail.  I have tried using different blank discs which are Verbatim to no avail.  I am using the very latest version of ImgBurn.  I also uninstalled Windows 7 update KB3001554 that one poster recommended that resolved this problem for them to no avail.  When ImgBurn hangs it requires a power-on reset to be able to use the Blu-ray burner for another program.  Other Blu-ray burning programs work just fine.

 

My system is a Windows 7 SP1 based Intel i7 4770K with 32 gigabytes of memory.

All it's doing is issuing the 'reserve track' command and waiting for a response.

 

So it sounds like your system is hanging / failing to process it.

 

Try booting into safe mode and see if you have the same problem. It could be driver related.

Sorry, I should have also indicated that I did try Safe Mode also to no avail.  What doesn't make logical sense is that it will burn a 50 GB rewriteable every time without fail yet no matter what I do it won't burn a normal 50 GB disc.  It can't be a problem with the burner because Nero will burn a normal 50 GB without a problem.

It may not be issuing that command. I'm not entirely sure it's needed, but it should just fail (and I've never seen it do that), not hang.
