need a new backup burner

[gaftop1]

have a liteon 48125w that went south on me. so, need a new burner. which burner should i get to copy the latest safedisk as in call of duty united offensive. preferably one that will burn cd's and dvd's. the liteon did backups of all my games using the latest alcohol 120% except the coduo. it will run from the alcohol image but won't burn

as luck would have it. i was having lots of problems with lockups and shutdowns did memory checks and psu changes cpu change. changed the gigabyte 7nf rz nforce board back to my old gigabyte triton board. now no lockups no restarts burner is working like it should actually everything is working right. even made a backup copy of coduo.
going to take a lot of convincing to get me to get another nforce board.
had nothing but problems from the time i installed it.
