Backups Unreadable
« on: December 31, 2007, 02:47:00 PM »
Drive: SONY DVD RW DRU-820A 1.0b
Software: ImgBurn
Media: Memorex DVD+R DL

I am having trouble burning backups, as the title of the thread suggests.  To give a bit of history, I recently upgraded my motherboard, cpu, graphics card, ram and various other components in my computer but the drive remains the same.  Before my upgrade, I was able to backup 360 games using the drive, software and media listed above.  I have over 20+ working copies of my game backups.  

Since my upgrade though, I haven't been able to write a backup successfully.  As far as I can tell everything is configured the same.  I have ImgBurn set to create a layer break 1913760 and I am loading ImgBurn with the same media as before.  I've tried three different .ISOs and have 5 new coasters.  All my other backups work just fine still.  

I don't get any error message at all.  I insert the disc, it is recognized as DVD+R DL media, ImgBurn burns the .ISO successfully.  I insert the newly made backup into my 360 and after some humming the bar at the bottom says "Open Tray" after about 20 seconds of "Reading..."

Any suggestions?  I have absolutely not idea what could be affecting these burns because like I said, it's the exact same drive, software and media as before.  Help me please! =)

It's the media for sure.  Memorex crap FTW.   (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)   Seriously though spend some time reading the first link in my sig and it will explain it.  Although it has been updated and you need to stick with the 8x official rated DL Verbatims for the best results.

If you've successfully used memorex before (and all my backups work great with them) it may be with your pc.

Did you upgrade your burner? If so, try upgrading its firmware (the dvd burner in your pc) that worked for me (when i couldn't set the booktype, but it might update your burning profiles in your case)
