hi
the superdrive in my emac has suddenly given up the ghost
it will still read dvds but wont burn anything onto them or cd-r
tried burning from i tunes same result
tried burning from disc burner (downloaded from versiontracker) same result
this is what the system profiler says about the drive

when i tried from i tunes to burn disc came up with error message
"attempt to burn disc failed. the device failed to calibrate laser power level for this media"
in roxio 6 it said this
"sense key=media error
sense code=0x73, 0x03"
any one got a clue? do i need new firmware or new disc drive?
thanks for any help
martin
