BlindWrite not Writing

[JacobM5727]

i picked up a 50 pack of cdrs from media play.. memorex.. (only $20 )
i am trying to copy my stuff, so i got blind write, and i made an image.. but it wont burn it... with any mode
it says burning.. with time remaining.. and the little "writing" led on my burner blinks as usual
however, the cd remains blank (and useable.. not a coaster)
i have an LG GCE-8160B 16x10x40x burner
the burner is ok cause i made a cd in ez cd 4 this morning..
any ideas? thanks

maybe its only doing a simulation. i cant remember if it does that sort of thing or not because i dont use blind write much. i mostly use clone cd to burn games and nero for everything else.

Quick question, why are you using blindwrite? It can take a looooooong time to burn / make an image with blind read and write. Any reason you're not using clone CD or Nero?

I used to use blindwrite/read, but the latest version seems to have problems with my burner, i now use cloneCD instead.

I also know some people who have problems with cloneCD and their burners soo.....

Jacob -
On the Write-CD-ROM window, make sure that "Test mode" is not checked. I ran into that when I first started using Blind Write. I went through a 15 minute burn, only to end up with a blank disk! It took me quite a while to figure out what was going on. I think Blind Read/Write is a great proggy. I haven't found a CD yet that it couldn't copy.

clone cd wasnt making a decent image..
and i just havnt tried nero..
to think of it, test mode may have been done.. but still, it only took it around 3 minutes to not burn
thats as long as ez cd 4 takes to make cds..
