    firstly turn DMA on on your primary and secondary ide cables ( in device manager) your writing at 2x because its in poi.

    secondly u cant rip any faster than 2x because it was regulated to a 2x rip on all dvd drives..


    why rush it, alot can go wrong. i personally don't recomend burnning any faster than 2x but hey that's me.

    Can anyone help me with this problem?
    I have just purchased a batch of Datawrite Classic 4 x speed dvd's to burn on my Sony DRU500AX with firmware 2.0e or 2.0f but after burning approx 75% of the disc it spits it out says errors on disc etc, now have 6 coasters!
    Using RecordNow after using DVD2one programme
    I have burned 2 x speed discs with no problems so far but these 4 x speed have become a big problem. I have also tried to do a traight copy disc to disc using Roxio Easy Creator 6 and this even spits it out after approx 75%. Has anyone any ideas for me please.
