    I'm trying to use IMGBURN to burn some dual layer DVDs, and I keep getting the "Focus Servo Error" message. Windows 7's built-in ISO burner also fails, but with a very cryptic error message. Any ideas?

    Nope, will try that, but lowering the burn speed to 2.4x burned perfectly...

    CDBurnerXP always works for me. Have you used the boost to get through?
