Problem, with my PIONEER 111d writer

[Gewin]

Hi!
I have some problem, with my dvd writer. It is a PINEER 111d writer. I bought it above 8 months ago. But at 2 months ago, it doesnt write DVD+/- RW discs. Now, it cant write, and erase RW(either + or -). Can somebody tell me, what happened with my writer?It if helps, i not wrote too many dvds. (maybe 50-60 pieces)
(I am so sad. Everybody said, that LG writers are bad writers. I used two of them, for 3-4 yeard. The pioneer is only 8 months...)

What firmware is on your PIONEER 111D drive? You could try updating the firmware.

Hi!
The firmware is:1.29

LG writers are not bad writers.

Pioneer writers are not bad writers.

Your writer is a bad writer. Contact the manufacturer's tech support. It's broken. Perhaps you have a warranty.

What burning software are you using to burn dvd media? What brand of dvd media are you using? Also what's the MEDIA ID of the brand that you're using? You can use CD/DVD SPEED or DVDINFO PRO to find out the MEDIA ID. If you're using a brand like TDK & MEMOREX the MEDIA ID is CMC or RITEK which is considered crappy media. Use good quality dvd media like VERBATIM & TAIYO YUDEN. But if you're already using those 2 brands of good quality dvd media then your dvd burner is probably dying. Contact PIONEER ELECTRONICS for a replacement or buy a new dvd burner.

I used nero, and imgburn, and power producer softwares. The rw disks are verbatim dvd-/+rw.
I think the solution is the warranty.

Wrong, the solution is to wipe such crap software like Alcohol!
Also test your burner in another computer.
