I'm trying to make a back-up of my Ford navigation disc 6P because I'm worried about only having the one in case something happens. I read the guide and copied it to my harddrive and then copied the MDS file to a TDK DVD+R Double Layer (only one my Office Depot had). Everything appeared to work and in about 38 minutes it said 100% complete and popped my drive open. Then I decided to see if it looked the same as the original so I put it back in the drive but it could never read it. Now I don't know what to do. Can anyone post the steps as to how to do this the right way? Thanks in advance for any and all help.

If it isn't protected against copying then this method should work: http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=6380

 

Also please read this regarding dual-layer media as it's very important: http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=8000

 

 

Ok I tried this and did it at 1X speed and again it said it worked. Now though if I leave the disc in the drive a long time (>5 minutes) it will eventually get past the "Logical unit is in process of becoming ready" and show the disc information that appears to be identical to the original disc. Now when I put in the original disc the information is shown within 30 seconds or so so I'm not sure if this is a problem or not. Unfortunately I don't have my vehicle here to test the back-up so until then i don't know if it has really worked or not. Thanks for your help though and it sounds like I may need to order some Verbatim discs.

Please post the log from that burn (you can find it at Help menu -> ImgBurn Logs).

 

 

Hope this works......

Does this make any sense?

Look for a firmware update for your burner at HP's website. You should also leave Verify enabled, as that ensures the disc was properly burned. And definitely get Verbatim 2.4x (MKM-001-00 dye) Made in Singapore DVD+R DL blanks, because the one you have is junk :&

Ok, I checked for the firmware update but there is none. I'm pretty sure that i had Verify enabled but I'll burn another jus in case. I'm kicking myself for buying the TDK crap instead of ordering Verbatim but oh well, next time. Thanks again.

That's strange, as I could find elsewhere firmware HH18 from HP for that burner. I've looked around HP's Support page but it doesn't show results for L632D. Maybe if you use your laptop model and check which updates are available for it?

That's what i tried because when I used L632D it only came up with desktop results. I know HP support is not always the best so if there is another way you think I can get the update I'm all ears. I hate to sound like such a newbie but I've never really done this kind of thing (yeah I know, that's what she said!!)
