Dual Layer Burn Wont Start

[mileserik]

I'm trying to burn an ISO file with imgburn using Memorex DVD+R DL on a Lightscribe DVD Writer. I set it up and press burn than it just waits with the message "Waiting for Read Thread" at the bottom. Nothing happens. I wonder if anyone can help me.

Hi and welcome to the forum, mileserik!

 

Not the best media you are dealing with.

 

Your current firmware is CP81. There is a CS08 version.

If you flash:

 

No disc in the device

Tray closed

All other programs closed

 

Restart the PC after the flash.

 

Is it a game you are trying to burn?

Hey thanks for your quick help!

OK so I downloaded the new firmware and extracted it with winrar. Next I tried to run it but I get this message:

[Cynthia]

Is that a 'true' LiteOn writer, or some 'rebanded' one?

 

Another source of that firmware.

Well it came in an HP Pavilion. But it has the logo and everything.

Try to see if there is something on the HP site. Normally you need to get the model name/number of the computer to find the firmware on the HP site. Sometimes there is also an HP updater installed in such a computer that can find new stuff like firmware.

Anyway, switch your media - Verbatim, +R, 2.4x, MKM-001-00, Made in Singapore is what we recommend.
