Some developments this evening. After uninstalling the drives and controllers Nero now reads the disc. However, it fails the burn stage right away with an internal target failure.
Right, I've done the following - Downloaded Roxiozap which asked me about Easycleaner 4 or 5 or something. Anyway I clicked OK and was asked to reboot. I uninstalled my drives and controllers and rebooted the PC which then installed them back. Now my CD Rom drive is a bit picky as to what discs it reads. Some it does while some it doesn't. Before I did all this I managed to do a successful burn using Nero but then got the problem with the CD rom drive. This was happening even prior to doing the above. Do you think the firmware needs updating? I have a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-106D and an Asus DVD-Rom E608. Is it easy to update the firmware? I'm beginning to think there may be something conflicting. Any further help would be appreciated.
update the pioneer firmware here... http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pio/pe/images/portal/cit_3424/73813268DVR106D_FW108.exe http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1615 then post nero log,
Updated the firmware and now have an internal target failure straight away again! I've got a headache!
So I've updated now to Nero 7 and still I'm getting this Internal target failure error.

will your discs burn at a slow 2x? ok go to nero website and get the v7 removal clean tool, uninstall nero v7 then use clean tool... while your at the site get the latest update for nero v7 and install this version try 4x... tools = http://www.nero.com/eng/support-nero7-tools-utilities.html nero v7 update = http://www.nero.com/eng/downloads-nero7-update.php then try installing a ASPI layer = http://www.afterdawn.com/software/cdr_software/cdr_tools/frcaspi.cfm and see what happens, do you have a different brand dvdr to try aswell?
Bad flash or incorrect firmware. Revert to previous firmware. Also this must be the last 106D on the planet.. all the others I knew died with laser failure 2+ years ago.
i am running a 106D in this rig hehe... with hacked fw 108 not used it for a year... forgot to mention go to the makers website of your motherboard and install the latest IDE drivers ! also do you have AUTORUN enabled on this drive? when a disc is loaded a box pops up asking what to do? if so disable it... --------------------------------------------------- also i have seen this on changing dvdr type used Sense Key: 0x04 (KEY_HARDWARE_ERROR) try some verbatims or TY
Today I've uninstalled all traces of Nero, uninstalled drives and IDE controllers. Rebooted. Kept the firmware as it is. My motherboard is a MS-6373. I googled this and downloaded some driver which installed som Nvidia stuff. Not entirely sure if this is connected to the IDE drivers you have mentioned. Anyway I installed Nero 6 (It's the only one I've had success with) and tried to burn some DVD files. Once again I'm getting the Internal target failure error. Any ideas?
ok so you changed and tried everything except: an ASPI layer and different dvdrs also have you been inside your pc recently moved cables of jumpers? was autorun off? just check taskmanager for anything holding the drive while burning, WMP does!
Downlaoaded and unzipped the ASPI layer but was unsure what to do with it. I don't have any different DVDrs to hand at the moment. I was under the impression that updating the firmware might not be a good idea due to the bad flash mentioned in this thread.
you can uninstall it after if you wish... open zip file read INDEX.htm gives more info but basically extract all files and run instaspi.bat -------------- i thought you did put firmware in? it shows v1.08 also have you been inside your pc recently moved cables of jumpers? was autorun off? just check taskmanager for anything holding the drive while burning, WMP does! ------------------------ 2 updates for your pc http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=272 this one scans your pc and tells you what you need... http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=utility&maincat_no=1&prod_no=272
I think those updates I installed earlier. My PC didn't like the scan. It crashed immediately and the only way around this was to do a system restore in safe mode. Previous to this I actually did a successful burn. I use supermarket branded discs for 2 reasons. Firstly, they're easy to get hold of and secondly, they've always worked for me. I don't know if I can name them on here so I'll just say I've been using "number one" 16X discs and they haven't burnt to the same brand. However when I tried to burn to "number two" 8X discs it worked. How can this be?
you can name brands ok so you found a dvdr that works for you! excellant! dvdrs have different dye in them the burner has to like them else no go! to find the dye mid code, use imgburn or dvd identifier or dvdinfopro your burner is old and likes old dvdrs at 8x, new 16x dvdrs with new dye codes are harder to read, thats why firmware updates are made, but pioneer stopped at v1.08 long time back new dvdr types need new dvdRW drives/firmware.
But what I can't understand is the discs I've been using for the last couple of years suddenly don't work! My friend has recommended this http://ukdvdr.co.uk/shop/Pioneer-DV...-Re-Writer-Internal-Beige-29071-pr-19502.html
check the dye code off a new dvdr your useing against one from a year ago, see if the dye codeing is the same, i bet it isnt, brand name of say XXX means nothing, that XXX brand could use 5 different dyes, discs look the same from same shop, but underneath there not! since my pioneer 106D got to v1.08 i bought and went for lite-on drives... so not sure with pioneer these days but i would recommend lite-on. pioneers dont booktype i dont think, but if that isnt needed for you fine... i use VERBATIM DVD-R 16x with TY dye coding i buy from here for years they state the code on the site before you buy! http://www.svp.co.uk
Thank you for your valued advice. You may have not have heard the last I fear. I'll continue to find the right medium. Thanks again!
