Hello, I've tried to use decrypter and when i put my blank dvd in it won't show any info on it? i Read that i should check my ASPI settings and i don't know where to find them? At the bottom it reads device notready (medium not present)?I apreciate the help muchly thanks cheers
Two things pop on my head now: - on the box name "source" did you see your burner in there - you may use the wrong media, such as - or +
Hi flankR, Welcome to aD, You need to upgrade your media - DVD Decrypter won't recognize crappy discs - Cheers, Pete
Thanks- The dvd i'm using, after first trying -r then finding out that it should of been dvd+r the brand is sony(which i figured was a good disc and my burner is brand new. I read that pioneer was reccomended but i didn't see them. should i look harder for this brand?
if thats the case, google for adaptec aspi, or force aspi, and follow the instructions. You will get a file called aspichk.exe ,run this and it will tell you if you have a layer installed and working
Good burner yes but i dont think they make blanks, if that is what you were refering to Good discs are branded (ie Named) ritek, or verbatim metal azo discs
thanks for the help guys. I ran the force for my aspi settings and i tried the recomended verbatim disc and it still reads device not ready(medium not present) the worst thing is that it will read all other discs other than the blank dvds. Any thoughts would be very much appreciated. cheers lost in New Scotland
Hi flankR, Firmware is what teaches your burner what discs to talk to. "Super-Duper" it is, look for a "Flash" Firmware upgrade for your drive. Sony is a good grade media, stay with that and your Verbatim, you're on the right track there - Do that Firmware: thingie - Cheers, Pete
thanks Pete. cheers I'll let you know how it goes. quoting my feet to my ankles "I'd be lost without you"
hello again. I downloaded the firmware snd now a box comes up that says load fileand i don't know what file theyre asking for. thanks cheers
im guessing youve downloaded the flashing tool?? you need to download the actual firmware (often coimes in .bin) Where did you get the firmware from and whats its filename?? Make sure you download the specific one for your burner as well http://sony.storagesupport.com/dvdrw/firmware.htm is the official firmware page, or http://www.rpc1.org for cracked firmware _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Intel Celeron 1.8 512mb ram Aopen Com4824 HP dvd300e Sony DRU-510AK 40gb Samsung 120gb Maxtor --------- PS2 v9 SatinSilver Magic V modchip[/small]
