Wii Having Trouble Reading Some Disks

Hi, I have a WII which I installed a Drivekey Mod CHip, it works great, but recently it seems to be having trouble reading some of the new games I am making. Its kind of weird because it reads to first 20 or so games no problem but now on some it reads the game and as I start playing it says “cant read disk refer to owners manual” I have tried a couple different kinds of disks and thought this might be the problem, as I understand Verbatum disks are best, I have not tried that yet becasue I will have to travel 60 miles to get them. If that is the problem I will definitely go get them. I am burning just as suggested using Imgburn at 2.4x speed, I even tried burning at 1x speed and same results. Now what is weird to me it doesnt happen on all games, could it be the upload/download? Or could it be just a bad burn? Usually if one says it cant be read I burn it again just in case of a bad burn but it usually still says the same thing, cant be read.
Anyone else having or have had this problem or any ideas of what to try would be gladly appreciated.
ThanQ for everyones help and uploads they are awesome and my daughter is loving it.
Regards,

Ive been having the same problems for the last two days with my drivekey and been pulling my hair out. I ended up solving it by just following this guide from the drivekey site : http://www.drivekey.com/static/html/fb_howto.html All links must be coded - including, but not limited to, e-mail addresses, passwords and internal links.
Link(s) coded. ~ thepoint
Even though I was using dvd-r settings, I just followed that exactly and now all the backups play ok..
good luck!

The speed of burning isn’t really an issue , It’s the type of disks that are used…
The download or upload , or the way the game has been burned is unlikely to be an issue either..
I burn using Nero on highest possible speed and it takes me about 7 minutes to burn a game to DVD.. They almost always never fail me..
I started off burning games to various branded disks but found sometimes they’d work and then other times they’d crash during gameplay so then I decided to only use Verbatim -DVDr (as opposed to Verbatim +DVDr) as that type of disk gives the best results..
The only problem is that some batches of Verbatim will be hit or miss (Due to the dye on the DVD’s) so you just have to take a chance but I’d say definately go for the (Verbatim DVD-r)..
If a game plays on the wii first time off , it doesn’t mean that it will work everytime and that’s where the problem lyes.. I had around 200 games burned to DVD on various branded formats and they all worked at one point or another yet some of them couldn’t be read every time so I decided to throw them all out and start over.. Luckily I’d kept all the ISO’s on hard drives so I didn’t have to download them all again..
