wajowens Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Hi, I've dled the latest imgburn and tried to burn an iso to a blank dvd-r, and got a disc not empty message. I've attached the log. I'd be very grateful for any help! thanks ImgBurn.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Go into Read mode and make sure it's actually empty. Make sure there aren't actually any contents on the disc. Try inserting another one of them and see if it's the same as this one. Sometimes, especially with cheaper media, you actually gets packs that contain returned failed burns. If ImgBurn can't detect there's actually contents on the disc, then you've got a more serious problem. What's the MID on this disc? Could be your HP drive doesn't like that kind of MID. It may not see them as actual blanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Almost all of those commands are erroring out and no additional sense info is being reported. That's probably related to the controller the drive is attached to or the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wajowens Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 thanks for that... might you have any suggestions about what one might do in these circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Right click the drive selection box and pick 'family tree'. Close the prompt that comes up and then copy and paste everything from the log window please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wajowens Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hi. I really do appreciate this mate, I realise you're going above and beyond imgburn software support here! i should mention that I've got it to work a few times by turning the computer off and on.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Right well what I'd do here is install the latest Intel rapid storage technology driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 What's weird is the issue apparently keeps repeating itself even after you power cycle. Sometimes drives just need a power cycle to fix an issue. I forgot to mention that as something to try. But it apparently is an issue that goes away and keeps coming back, then?
