We're getting close...I can feel it... I've tried the following based on the responses to my previous post, (http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/446313): 1.) updated firmware 2.) re-installed driver to correctly set DMA mode. Something is definately better now because I can now play DVDs using VLC which was not previously possible. However, I'm still receiving a write error when trying to write to the DVD. My next step will be trying new media, but does anyone see anything in the logfile which would suggest anything else. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.71 (0002), size=45056 bytes, created 7/19/2004 11:41:48 AM ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 11/2/2004 12:54:32 PM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 6.6.1.4 Internal Version: 6, 6, 1, 4d (Nero Express) Recorder: <TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-R6112>Version: 1033 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.1.4 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

Hi rtbrown 1st edit out your serial # - at the top of the log begins w/ 1A. The hard drive is still in pio mode. So follow the guide again. Looks like you may have just done the 1 drive. That and try different media. For this drive look for 8x or lower if you can find it like verbatim or made in japan sony, fuji or maxell.
