I am hoping someone can help me. I have been reading up on everyone's problems with burn errors, but none seem to be the same as mine. I have included my burn error message that I get. I am using Fuji DVD+R blank DVDs.

I don't think you have your drive installed correctly, do you have the master and slave set correctly? You shouldn't be multi-tasking when you are burning, turn off all apps via task manager during the whole process. You are writing too close to the edge, write no further than 4300MB. This is something that Alkohol pointed out in another thread, but now that I think about it is kinda true. Ritek was suppose to be a pretty good quality media, but now we've been getting alot of burn errors w/ Ritek so switch to something like Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim, Sony and Fuji are fine so long as they are Made in Japan, the same goes for Maxell. No drivers are showing up which mean I'm almost certain you don't have your jumpers loaded correctly.
@tracy2181 - i've edited out your serial number - [bold]1A20-***********************[/bold] in future pls do not post any serial numbers
Hi GlueEater, I don't know what jumpers are or how to set master and slave correctly or what they even are. Are there any websites where I could get more info on these and how to set them correctly. Thanks, Tracy
I don't know, but lately I've seen a lot of RITEK with "KEY_MEDIUM_ERROR" and now "(STATUS_CHKCOND, KEY_UNIT_ATTENTION)", so maybe it's good to try other high quality like Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim and Maxell (made in japan). Below is an example successful burned log of mine. You can compare mine to yours and see if you'll notice any differences. This is what "GlueEater" was talking about; again it's taken from mine, and yours doesn't seem to have them. Existing drivers: File 'Drivers\ASPI32.SYS': Ver=4.71 (0002), size=16877 bytes, created 7/16/2002 7:53:02 PM File 'Drivers\PXHELP20.SYS': Ver=2.03.18a, size=20576 bytes, created 10/8/2005 7:33:40 PM (Prassi/Veritas driver for win 2K)
Did you install your Burner yourself or did it come w/ the comp? IF it came w/ it then send it back to them and they'll fix it for you, if you installed it yourself then it should have came w/ an instruction booklet.
I transferred the burner to my other computer (it's faster and better than the other I was using) and I don't seem to have any problems. If my drivers are off wouldn't that effect my burning no matter which CPU I was using? -Tracy
On the 'good' computer, run Nero Startsmart, locate Nero Toolkit then run InfoTool then click on the 'Aspi' tab.Look at Nerpo aspi layer and system aspi layer.Then do the same on the problem machine and see if they are the same.
My Nero ASPI is installed and working on both computers and on both computers I have no System ASPI installed. I have also been getting some burn errors on my 'good' computer, but not as many, so I am not sure what is wrong. I don't know what a System ASPI is or how I would go about installing one. Does this having something to do with my burn errors? Thanks, Tracy
Before going too far into drivers, have a look at this link. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdwriters.php?DVDnameid=269&Search=Search&list=2#comments You mention that the good PC has occasional burning problems which contradicts your earlier post, or did you mean that there was no problems except when you moved the Sony drive to it? It seems, from the opinions posted on the link that the drive is very picky when it comes to media.I would buy a small pack of Maxell -R, which the package will say are made in Japan (I think the 10 packs in jewel cases) and try them before going further.
The good computer had no burn errors for a while on the discs that I had had problems with on the bad computer, but I was too quick in saying that it didn't get any burn errors because a couple of days later I was getting burn errors again. I tried Sony DVD+R that are made in Japan but I got burn errors with those. I don't know how to switch over to -R DVDs, can you tell me how, my burner supports those, but I don't know where to go to enable my burner to burn those. Also I have been looking for a new burner, any ideas on what would be the best? Thanks, Tracy
See this thread, very similar to your problem and note the reply from 'creaky' regarding 'aspi' http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/265883 He gives a link which will help you install the required ASPI layer, then you can eliminate that as the problem. Also as regards dvd-r disks, you just insert the disk.The burner should accept it. I note that 'creaky' has not subscribed to your thread, which surprises me.If you are not making progress you might PM himself and ask him to look at your thread.
you dont need to enable anything to burn -rs just put them in your drive and burn like normal. you could go to http://www.newegg.com/ProductSort/SubCategory.asp?SubCategory=5 for a good place to buy dvd burners for around 40$. i would buy a lite-on because they dont have riplock at all whick slows down the extraction of dvds to your hard drive on most brands and can booktype my +rs to dvd-rom
- i'm a few replies up, but i didn't get chance to come back yet.. i subscribe to virtually all Nero threads, but hadn't got around to this one 'til now.. , will have a read thru...
right... have had a look thru, nothing wildly different from what the other guys have found/recommended.... - the ATAPI drivers are supposed to be listed in this section, fix via this - http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/FAQ.htm [bold]however[/bold] if the burner is external to the PC you may not have to bother with this - see my last comment. - There's a 'UYS4' dated June 28th, 2004 (still quite old though but might do the trick) here - - (see previous comment). your firmware is current enough to recognise those Ritek discs, as if it was too out of date you'd see just the first line ie - - however maybe the newer firmware will improve things. edit- the burner appears to be ecternal to the PC, ie USB or similar ?, do you know if you have USB2.0 or the older USB1.1 ??
According to this link, it's an internal IDE drive http://www.dealtime.com/xPF-Sony_Sony_DVD_RW_DWU18A_4X_DVD_RW_8X_DVD_R_12X_DVD_40X32X24_CD_RW_Black
