Hi, can you help? I've tried several different brands of media, and I keep getting the same error messages...Could not perform start-Of-disc-at once, and Illegal disc. I believe I have the newest versions of Dvd Shrink and Nero, I've checked the DMA settings, reinstalled the drive, checked for driver updates, and even cleaned the drive. Is there anything else I could do? Thank you so much for any help you can give me...Here's the error log: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=?.?.?.?, size=30208 bytes, created 6/11/1997 7:01:02 PM ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 10/26/2004 6:35:34 PM Nero API version: 6.6.0.16 Using interface version: 6.3.1.4 Installed in: C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\ Application: ahead\Nero - Burning Rom Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 16b Recorder: < DVD+RW RW5125> Version: 1.51 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : Maxtor 6E030L0 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : DVD+RW RW5125 atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : ATAPI 48X CDROM atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === DVD+RW RW5125 E: CDRom0 ATAPI 48X CDROM F: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 57671680 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 381MB (391152kB) Free physical memory: 143MB (147100kB) Memory in use : 62 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 16.9.2005 NeroAPI 10:12:24 PM #1 Phase 112 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 276 DVD-Video files reallocation started 10:12:24 PM #2 Phase 114 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 276 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 10:12:24 PM #3 Phase 111 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 276 DVD-Video files sorted 10:12:24 PM #4 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 10:12:24 PM #5 Text 0 File AudioCompilationImpl.cpp, Line 842 DRM: StartDrmRecording(RealRec:1, ImageRec:0, Copies:1) DRM: Beginning burn process. 10:12:24 PM #6 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 10:12:24 PM #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 10:12:24 PM #8 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 10:12:46 PM #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 2295103 (510:01.28, 4482MB) Last address to be written: 1925167 (427:48.67, 3760MB) 10:12:46 PM #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO 10:12:46 PM #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: DVD+RW RW5125, Media type: DVD+RW 10:12:46 PM #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 448 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= Insert empty disc to write to.

Ravna Welcome to aD! From your log here's three problems: Make sure all drives are in DMA mode. Here's a link for help: http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/checking DMA.pdf Your latest firmware is 1.72. Up date that. Your drive can see that you are using a +RW but it can't tell who the manufacturer is. Means your drive doesn't like the media used. A firmware update should help this.
Hi, thanks for the tips...I did flash the drive with the updated firmware...and viola, it reads and burns everything! Thanks so much...it's nice to have people out there who can help!
