BSOD when writing on TDK DVD+RW 4.7GB

[Mirko]

Hi,

I'm currently using latest version of IMGBurn 2.4.2.0 software to write a

CentOS 5 ISO image on a rewritable support TDK DVD+RW single layer.

I tried on different machines and I have the very same effect: BSOD

and reboot when started writing.

It doesn't behave this way when I use DVD+R or DVD-R supports.

 

ISO image is 3.46GB (3.717.464.064 bytes)

Here is what ImgBurn is reporting of writer and support.

 

Format and erase works flawlessy.

 

Any clue? thanks

BSODs are caused by driver problems and/or bad memory sticks, so make sure your drivers are up to date and test your memory with memtest+

As I said I tried on different PCs and had the same results. The other PC recorder is a Samsung while this is a Lite-On. Seems strange it's a driver problem.

However I tested lately my memory stick with memtest+ and had no problem at all.

The problem seems to be related to this DVD+RW disc. At the moment I don't own other DVD+RW to test, so I was asking if anyone experienced such behaviors.

You need to find the memory debug log from the BSOD and analyse it using Microsoft's WinDbg program.

 

ImgBurn can't BSOD your PC, it doesn't work at a level where that happens.
