George is correct again. The Yamaha drives don't work for the CD+G. Yamaha drives will show up as able to do CD+G. The problem is that when you read and write the disc, you will then end up with distorted graphics on your new copy. We tried to work with Yamaha for about a year, but without any help from them we had to find another drive that would work.
The next brands of drives that we found were the Hp and Sony drives. These were both made by Sony at the time. These drives had about a 50/50 chance it would work without the graphics breaking up. We then gave up on these drives because Sony went over to buying the drives from Sanyo at about the 16x, so some Sony drives are not actually made by Sony anymore. I think you just got a lucky one, or Sony has started making there drives again. We switched to Plextor after the 10x Sony drives and the Plextor drives have been working perfect since. Plextor doesn't seem to be planning on doing anything to there drives to not make them read the CD+G format. Also if you read some of the reviews and things, Plextor always ends up getting very high reviews.
