![]() I’d had no problem in the past with these same discs, at the same speed, and while the drive was six years old, I had rarely used it and, besides, six years is not ancient. People blamed cheap discs some said that a slower burning speed could help some speculated that maybe the drive was going bad. Suggestions offered in response to these error messages seemed to be like the suggestions offered for many technical issues: there are a thousand possible solutions that might work for someone, somewhere, but that might not be responsive to the specific case. Choosing Tools > Drive > Close > Session (instead of Close > Disc) didn’t help. Trying with the tray open didn’t change anything. ![]() In this new error, the first part was the same as above, but it ended with this:ĪSC/ASCQ Interpretation: Medium Not Present – Tray Closed It seemed that maybe the firmware update had at least taken care of the first error. I think it may actually have been the second of two error messages appearing previously, but I had inadvertently closed it before I had more than a fraction of a second to notice it. That went OK, and I rebooted, but now there was a different error. I downloaded and installed 1.05, taking care to follow its instructions, so as not to damage the drive. There, I saw that the latest version was actually 1.05. The other route was to travel, via a Google search for this model, to the manufacturer’s webpage. I say that because the resulting FirmwareHQ webpage showed only firmware version 1.03. That route did not seem to lead to the latest firmware update. One was to use the option, within ImgBurn’s Tools menu, of going to Drive > Check for Firmware Updates. There were at least two ways to look for firmware updates. As I researched it, I saw a suggestion to see whether there was a recent firmware update for my BD-R drive. That produced an error:ĪSC/ASCQ Interpretation: Cannot Format Medium – To finalize the disc, I went into ImgBurn > Tools > Drive > Close > Disc. I didn’t realize that, as discussed in another post, ImgBurn would take care of that. (I had my purchase receipt to verify the model number of the drive, but I could also have used Speccy for that.)Īt that moment, it occurred to me that maybe I was supposed to finalize the disc manually. I had just used ImgBurn to burn a BD-R data disc on my LG WH16NS40 Blu-ray drive. But they did not turn out to work for my particular drive. This post described my exploration of the issue.
