Okay so I get a stack of Memorex DVD-R's and try to burn a PS2 image (Alarms start going off when my Drive doesn't give me the amount of space that I have free (0 bytes free, 0 bytes used). Anyway I go to burn the image and I get this log: Name: ************ Serial Number:**************** Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.59, size=160016 bytes, created 16/12/2003 8:18:06 PM Nero version: 6.3.1.10 Recorder: <_NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A> Version: 1.05 - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.3.1.10 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <AXV CD/DVD-ROM >Version: 2.2a - HA 2 TA 0 - 6.3.1.10 Adapter driver: <a347scsi> HA 2 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : WDC WD1600AB-00DYA0 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : OEM CD-ROM F564E atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : AXV CD/DVD-ROM 2.2a a347scsi Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === OEM CD-ROM F564E D: CDRom0 _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A E: CDRom1 AXV CD/DVD-ROM F: CDRom2 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: CmdQueuing : 1 CmdNotification: 2 WriteBufferSize: 66060288 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 EraseSpeed : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 447MB (458224kB) Free physical memory: 158MB (162392kB) Memory in use : 64 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 4.9.2005 Burn DVD Image 6:26:13 AM #1 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 118 Reader running 6:26:13 AM #2 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3200 Turn on Disc-at-once, using DVD media 6:26:14 AM #3 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 244 Last possible write address on media: 2298495 (510:46.45, 4489MB) Last address to be written: 2092725 (465:03.00, 4087MB) 6:26:14 AM #4 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 249 Write in overburning mode: FALSE 6:26:14 AM #5 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2107 Recorder: _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A, Media type: DVD-R Disc Manufacturer: CMC MA - G.

Any recommendations to get this image to burn. I have a V7 PS2 with a Duo2 SE chip installed and I hear only DVD-R's will work with it.
- too old, update to 6.6.0.16 from here - http://www.nero.com/en/nero-up.php - wow, that firmware is 7 revisions behind, 1.0C (latest) is here - http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1517 - DMA needs to be ON. fix it via this - http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/FAQ.htm - oh no. no. no. that's THE worst most atrocious dvd media money can buy. buy DECENT discs - splat! - the DMA fix further up the reply will reinstate the drivers correctly
