ladnek Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Anybody else having problems burning Blu-Ray disks with LG GGW-H20L? I have tried Imgburn (latest release) and tried Nero 7 both with UDF2.5 and I get to about 4% complete, they both lock up and they keep burning but don't finalize the disc and I have to reset the system. My system hardware is pretty recent and I am running XP SP2. I have tried a LG BD-RE disc which I can erase and try again (which I have done several times) and I waxed a RiDATA BD-R, $15 down the hole....

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I've only used the Verbatim BD-R and BD-RE discs so far really but it's been fine with both of those. What firmware version are you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladnek Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) YL02, I will try Verbatim BD-RE's. You would think the LG disc that came with the drive would work but??? That's asking to much... Thanks Edited March 31, 2008 by ladnek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 No, write retries like that are never 'normal'. How is the writing surface of the disc? 100% finger print/dust free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRiceman Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Haven't checked yet, however the disk was brand new as well as the drive itself... Could this be a hardware issue? should I first try with another disk? if so, what brand should I buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Get yourself one of the Verbatim BD-RE discs and try that. Report back when you have and we'll take things from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
