JMThomas Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 1. I don't have any hardware problems. All I did was reinstall XP. I even used ImgBurn to create the install CD that started my troubles. 2. Installed a XP system disk with "Unofficial XP Service Pack 4" slip-streamed in. SP4 is a well respected roll-up of all fixes issues by Microsoft after the M$ official SP3 release and the termination of XP support. It is distributed through RyanVM.net, and many people still clinging to XP have used it without any difficulty. 3. The install recreated rebuilt reinstalled drivers for all of my hardware. I followed up by installing the Intel chipset and graphics drivers for my motherboard. Everything appeared to be fine; reinstalled programs, downloaded, etc. Spent a good day doing mail, browsing, programming, games, even read a couple of CDs.. 4. Finally, I fired up ImgBurn again to make another copy of my install ISO, and it throws an I/O error at first write: Here's the log I 00:12:23 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!

All rights reserved. My device Capabilities: I have a second drive; it fails the same way. I've tried Verbatum and ugly Memorex blanks, and the all fail the same. The only interesting entries in the system log (actually 3): 1) "IMAPI CD-Burning COM" got a start command, 2) entered the running state, and 3) stopped. My firmware is up to date for both devices. This has got to be some sort of configuration problem. I can read anything, but I can't write anything. Can anyone please advise me? Thanks! PS: Did I miss any more diagnostic info ImgBurn can produce?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Right click the drive selection drop down box and pick 'Family Tree'. Close the prompt and then copy + paste everything from the log window please. If you boot into safe mode, does it work?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Install virtual clonedrive or anything else that installs elbycdio, switch imgburn's i/o interface to elbycdio and see if that works. I have no idea why, but the os is rejecting the commands and returning an error.
JMThomas Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) Elaborate Bytes driver fails same. Nero 9 fails same. Inquiries are also being made in the SP4 forum. Interestingly, I CAN create CDs. Just not DVDs. Thanks for you work, Lightning. I don't expect further assistance, but wanted to keep things updated. Edited February 29, 2016 by JMThomas
JMThomas Posted March 1, 2016 Author Posted March 1, 2016 We found that the install DVD I built was missing some files, though I can't name all of them. I wish I could, but I ended up deleting the bad ISO too soon. GIU mode install did ask for some files, but after I pointed it to the extracted SP4 files, install seemed to complete OK. Theory: The first missing file it ask for may have been from WMP, guessing from the name. Since WMP seems to cary support for burning, perhaps it got into a conflict with XP base. Anyway, another slipstream onto an older disk created an install disk that gives a working DVD burner.
