I'm using Nero 6.6.1.4 and I can burn everything else like data and music but it says that the .img file is an incompatible format. I could burn with using these apps before I had a virus and had my system re-installed. My burner is only 2 months old. Do the rest of these application have a problem burning because Nero doesn't burn? DVD Decrypter starts to burn then stops at less then 1 percent then eventually fails and gives me an error. Same this with Alcohol 120%. Can any body help?
The version of Nero you are using contains some bugs and is causing problems. I would recommend you uninstall that version, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/en/Clean_Tools.html to remove all traces and then install this version http://httpdl2.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe its an older version but completely bug free. Do not use crap media, especially memorex or anything made by CMC Mag. and burn at 4X
Gwendolin, does Nero 6.6.0.18 work with Windows XP service pack 2? Last time I had to upgrade to the version of Nero I have now or it wouldn't work. Cyprusrom, is there an easy way I can copy the error log from DVD Decrypter and Alcohol 120%? I never had a problem until now so I didn't have to do it. Thanks for your help guys!
I don't know about Alcohol 120%, as I have never used it. With DVD Decrypter, go in "My Computer"->"Program Files"-> "DVD Decrypter" and see if you find it there. If not, next time you burn, click on "View" to see the log. You can save the log to a location from where you can later access it, or just copy/paste in your post.
I thought I had it fixed because I was able to burn a couple img files but I'm back getting errors again.

There is new firmware available for your burner, KSOB: http://www.liteonit.com/ODD/WebFW/SOHW-1693S/DR16KS0B.zip
I upgraded the firmware and tried to burn an iso file on test mode and got this.
