HI My Friend Had a DVDR that up until recently worked fine for creating home DVD's and backing up Movies, but now when ever recording/copying and time it writes it seems to go throguht the whole proccess fine but when it comes to finalize it freezez, and not for the 2-10 min it takes weve left it ove an hour befor and the disk never works after, any one have any clues of what may be wrong ? thanks alot J
A simple step to take would be to uninstall the drive through Windows. Try this: Go to Device Manager > Expand the tree for DVD/CD ROM Drives > Find the drive in question, right click it and go to Properties > Under the Driver tab, select Uninstall then OK. Now reboot and Windows should detect and reinstall the drive. If this doesn't help try the same steps as above except expand the tree for IDE ATA/ATA Controllers and uninstall either the Primary or Secondary controller depending on which one the drive in question is attatched to. Nero Info Tool can tell you which chain the drive is on under the Configuration tab. http://www.afterdawn.com/software/cdr_software/cdr_tools/nero_info_tool.cfm
