    X200 - 7458-CTO - Intel 4 Series chipset, Intel P8600 Duo Core Processor, 6 GB RAM, Intel Turbo Memory, latest BIOS from Lenovo site, all the Windows 7 X64 drivers from Lenovo site (manually loaded and loaded by the "update" process) Ultra Base with Mata UJ862A CD/DVD writer SB04.

    Originally Windows XP Pro SP3 x32. December 24th upgraded to Windows 7 Pro, x64. Machine went through upgrade well. Only problem is inability to burn a CD/DVD using the Ultra Base (Mata) CD/DVD burner. Tried the "built-in" Windows 7 program and CDBurnerXP. Will burn 10 to 15% of the disk and then errors out.

    I have disabled the Turbo Memory and it made no difference, rolled the Intel Storage software back to a previous version - no help. Have not found any other posts regarding this problem. Reads CD/DVD just fine - burning is the only problem. Have not found any newer drivers for the Mata CD/DVD device. Uninstalled device (through Device Manager) rebooted, found and reinstalled drive - still fails to burn a CD/DVD.

    Will post on a couple other boards -



    TIA, Michael

    Have you tried using different brands for the blank discs before confirming the CD/DVD drive is faulty? I have come across some discs that fail during burning while others have no problem (surprisingly the bad media was the Panasonic media in my experience).

    I generally don't have problems using TDK and Sony media, the cheap branded discs can be a mixed bag at times.

    1) Error message would come up and state that there was an error burning the CD and that it might not be usable.
    2) Yes, tried two different brands.

    Resolution= It works now - don't know what exactly I did - Ran the Lenovo System Update last night before leaving for home - following shows to be installed yesterday.

    Windows "patch" KB958685 (shows correcting a "sleep" problem.)
    Intel Matrix Storage Manager and Turbo Memory (unknown version)
    Intel Rapid Storage Technology - v10.1.0.1008
    Intel Turbo Memory v10.1.0.1008
    Lenovo System Interface Driver v1.05
    System Requirements Lab for Intel v4.3.16.0

    Successfully burned two CDs about 30 minutes ago.
