    What programs are you using to rip and burn, as much info as possible will lead to some quick help.

    I do not know a great deal about Roxio, but I know it's not the favorite program of choice on these forums from what I read.
    I always copy the ripped files to the hard drive and then burn them back a disc using Nero.
    I find doing disc to disc copying is risky.
    You could also try DVD Shrink, free as well, and AnyDVD is also good for breaking protection of the disc you are ripping.
    But the latest DVd decrypter should be able to handle all the latest protections.
    What media are you using?

    So you are saying that using DVD decrypter you are unable to make it rip to the hard drive, or that it fails to rip to the hard drive before it has finished ripping?
    If that is the case use AnyDVD in the background whilst ripping and see if that helps. This program will disable the discs protection.

    well the first time I put snatch in the drive it read it and gave me the option to choose the region, so it recognized the dvd, and I proceeded to rip it to the HD, at 52% it stopped and gave me an error, cant remember what it was, but it had the option to retry so I clicked, it didn't work, so I canceled and tried again and thats when this mssg appeared, I just dowloaded dvd shrink but it doesnt recognize theres a dvd in it either, says no disk in drive

    I would try AnyDVD running in the background, then while running in the background use DVd shrink or DVD decrypter and see if it helps.
    You should never need to change the region code in your Burner as you only have a limited number of changes and that's it!

    Check your Secondary Ide channel under your IDE controller to make sure your settings are DMA and that you show your burner also under Device Manager.

    You are welcome.

    Just a shot in the dark here but what is your DVD Region setting for your Burner as it is shown in your device manager? It should be region one if you live in either Canada or the US.

    Then try what was mentioned above using AnyDVD and DVD Shrink along with Nero6. Uninstall InCD if you have it installed since that causes problems, and just try the trial version of Nero6 this time. Most everybody here uses Nero6 instead of Roxio.

    Well I've tried using both anydvd and dvdshrink, all programs dont seem to recongnize that theres a dvd in the tray.. I would use nero but, I just cant seem to rip it to my HD. with the decrypter I get the mssg above, and with dvdshrink it says the player is empty, and I'm not sure in anydvd is doing anything...

    If your IDE Secondary Channel shows that your burner is using DMA...
    If your Burner shows in device manager...
    If your Burner is set properly, i.e. region, etc...
    If you have no programs running in the background...
    If you have plenty of HD memory and system memory...

    Then we can assume it is either a burner failure, MB failure or software conflict. Why not dump Roxio for the time being and use the programs that everyone knows works well. It's free and better then replacing a burner or MB. :)
