light scribe not working

[bnts1993]

Every time I try to use light scribe it does it on the wrong side of the disk and ruines it so the disk to longer works! If I flip the disk over so it does it on the correct side it says no disk found? any suggestions?

Welcome to the forums.

Has Lightscribe ever worked correctly for you? If it worked OK in the past, do note that the Lightscribe capability on burners can stop working. There's nothing you can do but get a new drive. I had that happen to me when I used Lightscribe in the past.

The only Lightscribe discs I would buy are Verbatim. I don't trust any other brand. Also, not to imply that you don't know what you are doing, but what you should do is burn the data to the disc first with the data side down as normal and then after you are finished burning the data, flip the disc over with the Lightscribe side down and burn your image. It should not damage the data side if you do it in that order.
