Dident know where to post this.

I have the above dvd drive and burner max payload says BurnerMAX not enabled, YET!
The said drive is on the compatible list.
I open imageburn select the file to burn run payload reselect the drive in imagburn (only 1 listed and installed)
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for looking and if this is in the wrong section can you please move?

Ok just spent £24 on a Pioneer DVR-2160 (on the comp list as working) and that dont work. Do I need to alter any settings in imagburner?

Get yourself a Sony Optiarc 5280S-CB PLUS.
They burn xgd3 games straight out of the box with no need for burnermax payload.

What drive do you recommend? I was looking forward to replace my 124 D drive until nofeloniesyet wrote, that it's not so good :D

Just my input. @nofel hey bud I've been using the optaric cb plus and have not had any issues yet. Granted I do not do a ton of burning but its in my garage PC which gets pretty dirty and it still does a good job so far. I saw the reviews too but figured what the hell amazon had it for $19. There were not a ton of bad reviews for the 5820s cb plus a lot more positive than neg on new egg and amazon :smile:
