dontasciime Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Change your media to something reliable of which there is only one and they are Verbatim 2.4x even if writer allows 8x on them choose 2.4x Crystal ball "but these have worked ok so far" You were lucky!

dontasciime Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 They are dearer but in the long term every one should write given that your system is not corrupt(you don't go installing every single burning program you find) and your writer is not faulty to begin with or develops a fault. Makes more sense to spend a little more for Quality over quantity of the cheaper ones who's success rate is quite frankly shit. Don't forget to set book type to DVD-ROM for 360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
