Okay my computer has started doing something really weird and I can't find any answers on tech support sites so this is my last hope.

I have a bluray burner drive on my windows seven computer and it has always worked fine but lately something weird is happening. It burns CDs and dvds just fine and it still reads Bluray discs without a problem but for some reason no matter what program I use it refuses to burn data to bluray discs.

Now normally I would think the burning lazer died or something but what is happening is that it is burning data to the discs and when I take them out I can see where they have been burnt but for some reason the computer is just giving up and refusing to burn the final step onto the discs so they can be read by a computer. It just gives up and says an error happened as soon as it tries to close the discs and leave me with a disc that has data on it but it can't be read by anything.

As I said this happens no matter what program or type of disc I use, I have tried three different types of discs that have never given me problems before and none of them work.

I have tried reinstalling the drive, updating the drivers, updating windows 7, and reinstalling all my burning software but nothing works. Even using the data burning program that is built into windows and never lets me down doesn't work.

This has been going on for more then a month and I am out of ideas and it is a big problem for me since my computer is my DVR and most of my blank discs are bluray discs and I don't have the money to buy new discs or a USB hard drive right now. My hard drive is starting to fill up because I have no way to get video files off of it.

If anyone has any idea what is going on and can help me I would be very grateful.

Thank you for your time.
