    CD's/DVD's play but cannot burn


    I used to be able to burn them. Not sure where to start.

    Sony Vaio VGN-NS230E.

    imgburn log:

    Code:
    I 00:08:29 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started!
I 00:08:29 Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Edition (6.1, Build 7601 : Service Pack 1)
I 00:08:29 Total Physical Memory: 3,009,572 KB  -  Available: 777,384 KB
I 00:08:29 Initialising SPTI...
I 00:08:29 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices...
I 00:08:29 -> Drive 1 - Info: MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ880AS 1.20 (D:) (SATA)
I 00:08:29 -> Drive 2 - Info: ELBY CLONEDRIVE 1.4 (E:) (SCSI)
I 00:08:29 Found 1 DVD±RW/RAM and 1 BD-ROM/HD DVD-ROM!
    I ran the Microsoft FixIt application but it did not resolve the problem. Fresh install of windows 7. Brand new cdr's. Also, when I insert a blank CD, it doesn't show up in My Computer, however if I insert a CD with data on it(or music), it shows up. Also should point out I have VirtualCloneDrive installed.

    Any help?

    Check whether a firmware update - version 1.22 dated 13 Jan 2011 - for your UJ880AS BDROM drive from Sony eSupport - VGN-NS230E - Software Updates & Drivers (Windows7>Bluray Disc) can resolve the issue. You may also update other drivers from that site.

    That didn't fix the problem.

    Your optical drive may need to be replaced - but I will take that call only after confirming that an external optical drive reads and writes perfectly with your Windows 7 installation, given the past history.
