So my problem is I'm having bad results on the second layer of all of my attempted burns. I have a new Lite-ON drive so I've been scanning everything I have, since my old drive was not made for scanning (HL GH30N).

Now, the first layer is always coming out super smooth. I have tried Verbatim MKM-001 Singapores and now a random pack of Memorex DL, always after the layer break you can pretty much add 150-250 to the PI for the remainder of the burn. I have tried my new burner and old burner. I have reinstalled windows vista. I have burnt in safe mode. I have 2GB of RAM. I have tried IDE and RAID configurations(ICH9R chipset). Same results. I have tried different burn speeds and different tuning options. It always comes out the same. I noticed my HDD is SATA II and my new burner is registering as SATA I. I use imgburn to do my burning.

With all that said, what am I missing. I've been pulling my hair out trying to find the problem. I see so many scans on other forums with the same media I'm using that have smooth second layers. I at least want to come away from this knowing the reason for my results. Help would be very greatly appreciated. I am tech savvy, but I'm new to the intricacies of burning quality media. Attached is just one scan, so that you can see the this crazyness.
