i have an hp laptop with an external dvd burner. i have no problem decrypting and then encoding but when i start to burn it gets to about 40% the disk pops out and i get an error message. Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.56, size=163910 bytes, created 4/2/2003 12:13:44 AM Nero API version: 6.0.0.0 Using interface version: 6.3.1.4 Installed in: C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\ Application: ahead\Nero - Burning Rom Recorder: <DVDRW USB1008UI> Version: 0056 - HA 2 TA 0 - 6.0.0.0 1:54:27 PM #34 CDR -1046 File WriterStatus.cpp, Line 160 Illegal disc 1:54:27 PM #35 TRANSFER -24 File WriterStatus.cpp, Line 160 Could not perform end of Disc-at-once 1:54:27 PM #36 Phase 38 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 232 Burn process failed at 2x (2,760 KB/s) Existing drivers: File 'Drivers\PXHELP20.SYS': Ver=2.02.57a, size=17168 bytes, created 7/30/2003 1:02:00 AM (Prassi/Veritas driver for win 2K) Registry Keys: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\AllocateCDROMs : 0 (Security Option)
as to last question , it could be any number of things [not gonna 2nd guess] , but should imagine it might be cos the media is not top notch ... what are they ?
i know you must have it posted somewhere else but what is the best? do you know anything about the new HP lightscribe disks? i am thinking about installing it in my desktop.
