Kuris Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 (edited) When I try to burn an ISO I get this the following error screen. I've read that it is a hardware problem and to do a firmware update but I can't find any updates for the Philips DVD8801. Can Anyone lend me some help on this? I also get errors in any other burn program. This is just the only one that actually gives me an error other that "Unexpected Error Occurred." Or is this burner shot and should I just get a new one?

mmalves Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Please paste the log from that burn. ImgBurn automatically saves them, and you can access at Help/ImgBurn logs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Or is this burner shot and should I just get a new one? New drive or new media... take your pick! They just aren't getting along very well at the moment, hence the error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevdriver Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Might be time to invest in a newer drive there mate! You can try a cleaner on the lens first, but it looks like the media/drive just don't like each other. Buy a couple of blank verbatim discs and try the same burn again, if the results are the same your drive may be on its way to the retirement park in the sky, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuris Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 Damn....Oh well I'll pickup a cleaner tomorrow and some better disks. If it doesn't work at least burners arn't that expensive anymore. Thanks for the help everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 vade, Please don't hijack threads. Normally I'd now tell you to go make your own, but as it's pretty clear you're trying to read a protected disc, I won't bother. ImgBurn will not read protected discs and there's to be no discussion of such things on this forum, capisce?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
