I recently purchased DVD Cloner II and downloaded it. I put the original dvd in D: and the blank dvd in Eboth drives are cd/dvd readable, an E: is the burner.They are Philips drives in a Dell Computer)It reads the original ok, but when it goes to burn the blank, I get a message that says: can't burn dvd, do you want to retry. I have tried retry and tried reading and burning in E: but nothing works. Don't know why it won't burn. Any help would be appreciated.
What brand and format are your blank dvd's? What model # is your dvd burner? Use this free proggy and give me the manufacturer and ID of your discs. http://dvd.identifier.cdfreaks.com/
keralesh, Welcome to the forum. Had to look up the program as I have never heard of it. Your problem sounds like the burner does not like the blank media you are using. Suggest you see if there are any firmware updates for the burner @ Dell and then use good quality blank media like Verbatim or Taiyo Yudens
The brand on the dvd is Maxell DVD-r 8x 4.7gb. Identifier says itis Ritek corp.(Ritek G05). I believe it is 8631.[FW CD21]
Firmware is up to GD30. Suggest you update the firmware so it will recog the Ritek's. See if dell has an update if not you can get it here: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?category=4&manufactor=24
Your drive is an oem beng dw1620 and your f/w is a little outdated. CD30 is the current f/w. Look here http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1978 @Car.Mike No worries buddy. Looks like I'm a little behind you now.
Mort....... when you use Clone 2 don't you have to use AnyDVD or DVD43 to burn the DVD? otherwise you get an error message, right? Or Cloner is different than Clone? hmmmm
Went to the site you gave me and upgraded to GD30.Works great now. You guys are greaty. I really appreciate your help. Thanks!!!!
@IHoe, I don't use clonedvd 2 but I'm pretty sure you're correct. You can probably rip with dvdd and then load the folder into clonedvd 2 but like I said I don't use clone 2 and am not 100% sure. @karelesh, You're welcome, that was almost too easy. Glad to see you're up n runnin. Mort
I just got another problem with my DVD Cloner II software. I'm doing the same as before, putting original in D: and target in E:, but now it says "drive d has no free space, an additiona l5741mb of free space is needed." This is for the same dvd i copied before with no problem. I would appreciate any help. Thanks. I tried doing just in E: and it doesn't work either.
