Indeed, once the PUOs are removed, the menu button will work just fine for you. I've done that on many of mine. I've had only a few failed burns in CloneDVD that were what I consider flukes, but, I've never had one failed burn with IMGBurn, so, I've basically stuck with that ever since I first tried it. CloneDVD is fine for burning, but, I prefer IMGBurn. ISO read and write mode is certainly a great way of backing up on DL media.
