i have solved the problem it was the bois' fault i dl it from asus for my mobo i reverted from a 1006 version to 1004 and it did it my mobo is a ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE somebody should contact them and tell them that the revision of the bios isnt complete come to think of it ill do it myself
Man, I am good eh, one reply and sorted..................LOL Glad to hear you sorted it out, and also that you posted back what the problem was.............. Must admit, it would be nice to know exactly what in the BIOS was causing the error. I would assume it may have something to do with the chipsets. You may find that with an updated BIOS, that you may require an updated chipset driver..................
well i still have problems burning dvd movies, although when i tried recording a demo of a game on a cd-r it completed successfully WTF is the problem im gonna go back to my very first bios this is bad now i wasted a total of 5 dvd-r's ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I take it that your optical devices read commercial discs just fine? How are you devices connected (inc Hard drives) in relation to IDE Primary master/slave configuration? If your burning process is failing, surely there is something that tells you it has failed, or is your PC freezing, or is windows giving you a blue screen etc..........
i talked to people over at Pioneer over d phone and it seems the media i was using is not supported by the drive by the way the media i used was TDK DVD-R 4.7 GB so do not buy this type of media ur just wasting money and i apreciate ur help so the problem is with either Pioneer which i doubt it and TDK no offense i thought TDK was good but this just sucks in my opinion
Yes I am surprised about that regarding TDK, they are reputable discs. I myself have a Pioneer 108, but only use Ritek discs 4x G04's, these have no problems at all. I haven't tried TDK, but would be worthwhile trying a different brand in line with what Pioneer have said. Maxell Taiyo Yueden Other good brands to look at................
the media that im using is called Hypermedia DVD-R for General Use rated at 8X speed these disks have no problem with my drive
which brand(s) i like the ones i got its just an opinion plus their $15 for a pack of 25 and i never wasted even 1 dvd-r so im happy with d ones i got
Are these ones actually working ok now then? If so, then stick with them, if not then try a one of the brands I mentioned................
these dvd-r's work perfect nothing wrong with them never had to waste even 1 dvd-r i burned mp3's on them, game images, hundreds of files inc system files, movies inc. avi's, VIDEO_TS dvd files in other words anything and everything
