Binkie,

The Verbatim made in Taiwan are made by CMC. The stamper says MCC and the dye is made by MCC, but the discs are made by CMC. MCC has no disc facilities in Taiwan.

@gogser
Your firmware is a bit behind - the latest is YYS7 from 7/06. Here's a link to update it:

Your drive is actually a rebadged Liteon - SHW-1635S model I think.
What brand of media are you using? Switch brands or spindles recently?
What speeding are you burning?

@joeryan
txs for the info :)

Thanks binkie7 I'll try the latest firmware when I get home tonight. I'm currently using Ridisc Branded (8x) DVD-R (http://svp.co.uk/products-solo.php?pid=215) and burning at 4x speed, I have also tried 1x with the same results. I've used this type of media for years on my old computer with the Pioneer A104 (I think) which work fine.

Lol rbrock I've been tempted to change drives especially with my old pioneer 4x working so well (better the devil you know!!), it so frustrating having a computer do everything except burn meaning I have to transfer everything over to my old computer and with it having USB1 ports you can imagine it's not the quickest :(

No problem Gogser
Update the firmware, burn a disc and let us know how it goes!
Ridisc uses a few manufacturers for the 8x -R's.
You can id the manufacturer by popping a blank a decrypter (write mode). Decrypter will give you the info on the disc.

those Ridisc are either a choice of CMC MAG. AE1/TTG02 (and from svp you will get either, ie no choice/guarantee as to which of the two you would get).
i need say no more.
