LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Use Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim media. Your drive doesn't like the stuff you're currently using and that's why it's erroring out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 For decent burns you need the drive/firmware/media combo to work nicely together. Yours doesn't. Basically you can do 1 of 3 things... 1. Find an updated firmware for your drive that likes MAXELL discs more than your current. 2. Find a new drive that likes MAXELL discs. 3. Buy some different media that your drive does like. You could also probably give a cleaning disc a quick whirl in the drive and see if that sorts things.
