Help with writing speed

Hi guys! Need help...
I want to burn PS1 games, I know about the .cue files, I know how to setup the software but I can't write at x4 speed or slower because it says something like "unsupported drive, minimum speed must be x10" my log file got updated and can't copy the exact message but this is what I can gather. Some guides online guides use various speeds but as far as I know it needs to be as slow as possible.

I 02:04:35 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!
I 02:04:35 Microsoft Windows 8 Core x64 Edition (6.2, Build 9200)
I 02:04:35 Total Physical Memory: 33,489,436 KiB  -  Available: 26,629,932 KiB
I 02:04:35 Initialising SPTI...
I 02:04:35 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices...
I 02:04:35 -> Drive 1 - Info: DVD RW JQ3M (E:) (USB 2.0)
I 02:04:35 Found 1 DVD±RW!

I'm using a Verbatim reader, could be the weaker brand, i dunno but I can however burn PS2 games successfully, I've tried with unchecking verification as well only once and still nothing. As I read the log it say's that I use windows 8 which is false, I use 10... if that's not enough I can always waste another CD-RW to make a new log file.
As for where I get my games, I've tried Coolroms, cdromance, vimm.net and another archive site, I've wasted A LOT of discs.
Thanks for reading and trying.

Unfortunately, the bottom line with the hardware is it will do whatever it wants to do in the end.  You can set your own user defined write speeds, but the drive may ultimately ignore them.

 

The Windows 10 thing is most likely the cosmetic issue.  Due to the age of the last ImgBurn release, Windows 10 is reported as Windows 8 since Windows 10 didn't exist at the time of the last ImgBurn gold release.  This has been addressed in subsequent beta releases and will make into the next gold release, which will identify Windows 10 as such in the Log.  And, no, don't ask when the next gold release is.  :)
