Sometimes the reason for the fail is Program memory area update failure

 

Thanks

is this the only media youve used since having this problem ?

 

yes it is...i just got a new computer about a month ago and i went out and bought a 100 pack of the sonys...i haven't tried anything else...i guess i should try some verbatims

[kevdriver]

Mikey, apparently the burner can't read back what it just burn't. Bad media or else your burner just doesn't like these sonys. Try some Verbatim or Tys and see what happens........

[blutach]

You're writing awful quick too. Try to close the disk manually.

Another nil points for the Sony's

[dontasciime]

Sonys discs do seem to be cropping up on here a lot with same outcome.

 

Binmen must hate sony.

[lfcrule1972]

Seems their media is shiter every day.....

[polopony]

Sony is definetly on the slide they are getting ready for big layoffs in their urban music division .Crap discs,outsourced optical drives then joining up with NEC to build new drives ( I have a DRU510A that was /is a great drive original Sony),Ps3 nightmares ,the batterys that were catching fire in the Dell laptops were made by Sony their share of that mess was around $400 million,spyware in their cd's,suing everyone around them they're a runaway train with no one at the wheel stay tuned ,they're so large that it will take time to completely screw up the company

[Mikey]

Thanks for all your help guys, im def going to try some new media. You great appreciated!!!!
