mmalves Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 That message means the hard disk wasn't able to transfer data fast enough for that burn speed. Defragment your HD and this problem shouldn't happen again. Notice that the slowest burn speed available for that type of disc is 4x, so even though you've selected 2.4x the drive burns it at 4x. By the way, please upgrade to the latest ImgBurn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agents Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 thank you so much for the fast reply!! I'm sure that the new verbatims caused these warning!!My biggest concern though is if the copies will have any problems.. So far they seem OK.. Anyone else with a similar issue? Are these warning tottaly harmless? i m getting the new version.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 The buffer thing is nothing to do with the disc, it's to do with the speed of your system/hdd and it not being able to supply data quickly enough for burning at 2.4x. Maybe you opened a program that's quite hdd intensive and ImgBurn's buffer was starved of data. Update to 2.4.2.0 and make the buffer 40MB instead of 20MB (if it doesn't default to that already).

mmalves Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 If it passes the Verify stage then yes, it's a good burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynthia Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 The Warning about the device is harmless probably? That one is 'normal' and is always seen in that part in the log. I never understand why that one is a W and not and I... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 No reason really, it just makes it more obvious when it's stuck doing that for a while - i.e. in the case of bad discs that the drive cannot reinitialise. It's less important now that ImgBurn automatically cycles the tray and brings up other messages when there's a problem in this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
