hello i have a sony vaio laptop fs-515e and having a nightmare burning an image file. my dvd drive is capable of burning dl however it has been giving problems for the past 2 days. so i tried an external lg dvd write dl capable and still problems.

i open imgburn and here are the details:

 

HL-DT-ST DVDRRW GSA-2166D 1.01 (USB)

I 11:57:18 Destination Media Type: DVD+R DL (Disc ID: RICOHJPN-D01-67) (Speeds: 4x)

I 11:57:18 Write Speed: 2x

 

Your choice of media would be my starting point. Get some Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim - made in Singapore only - and try again. Your log shows that the drive sees the media at 4x, but it burns at 2x, which is not a choice available for the drive, so I would also look for a firmware update for that drive also. After changing media and updating to a later firmware the problems should go away.

 

If not let us know and post another log.

As Spinningwheel said. Your choice of blanks is very very poor. Those disc's you will be lucky to get to write and if you do manage to get 1 to write the chances are the write quality will be poor so poor that your 360 ROM drive will DDE.

 

 

Get some Verbatim MKM-001-00 Made in Singapore

Make sure no disc is in and that tray is closed. Do not power off or open drive until it says finished.
