from the look of it your dvd drive should work.

ill tell you what i would do
i would go to wal-mart and get new dvd DL drive
then see if that drive will work.if it gives you the same problem then just take it back.if it works then you will know it was your drive that was the problem.

What kind of drive would you recommend? What kind of drive are you using? Where can get a DL dvd drive cheap? Thanks! :)

And I cant burn it to the dvd. On both IMGburn and CloneCD I get stuck on 50% or it would say write failed. It also says that my Matshita DVD-ram UJ-850s drive (laptop) is not compatible with CloneCD. :?:

well you said you had a DL burner that would go to 50% then stop
if the new DL burner does the same thing then its a good bet your orig burner is fine and there is something else wrong

I've only ever used Pioneer drives for burning, Never had a failed burn yet.

I use a 108 and 111, not the one in this link: DVR-1910LS

What do you mean by "not the one in this link"? Did you mean you have not used it yet or its not a good drive to use.

Which drive is better
The Sony DRU-840A or the Pioneer DVR-1910LS?
