svuush Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 Today my img started to give me this error message Incompitable Medium Installed . Have burned dvds from the same pile of empty dvds just some days earlier. Havent installed any new apps. This is the log from ImgBurn. Is this the right one? I 19:05:29 ImgBurn Version 2.3.2.0 started! I 19:05:29 Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 2) I 19:05:29 Total Physical Memory: 523 760 KB - Available: 155 416 KB W 19:05:29 Drive E:\ (FAT32) does not support single files > 4 GB in size. I 19:05:29 Initialising SPTI... I 19:05:29 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 19:05:30 Found 1 DVD-ROM and 1 DVD±RW! Dont now why it take up Drive E since i the files isnt on that drive and since the program is on drive C. Drive E has been Full until today but could it have something to do with that? Are my dvd burner brocken or could it be something else?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 Are the ones you've burnt coming up with that error too? Are you sure the discs are the same? You might have some from the same brand but they use a different dye to the others and the drive doesn't support the dye on these newer ones. All you can really do is check for firmware updates and try cleaning the drive.

It was a ten pack of verbatim disces and i had burnt maybe 5 disces from that pack already. Will try to clean the drive. Any tips of how i do that? will try to search to find out if not Edit: The error accurs when imgburn is started. So its impossible to start burning.. Had some problems when i installed the burner to. Is an dual layer burner and i couldent burn dual layer at first. But after a few days it was fixed by itself.. Edited January 20, 2008 by svuush
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 What you're seeing here is that the drive itself is reporting it's not ready. No program will be able to do anything with the drive until it manages to initialise the disc properly.
