    Its me again,

    Heres my problem

    Just put my copy of rv in and it said that the device is not ready.

    I ejected it and tried again after a few minutes and still not ready
    I have a hitachi gd-800 set to region 1
    I can burn this in my other computer with the same software with no problems.

    This computer however is a new compaq 1750nx that i added the hitachi drive and i have been having problems with burning ever since i got it

    now I can however write and read in the burner drive that came with my system

    oh btw when i put a dvd in the hitachi it shows a cd there but just wont recc it

    Have you guys thought about doing a firmware update and then trying again.

    most of the firmware updates require you to restart in dos mode and tht requires a boot disk. most new computers dont have a floppy drive anymore

    Very sinple solution. If you don't have an A: Drive then make a CD-rom bootdisk if you need to boot in DOS for firmware update.

    Google (Make CD bootdisc) and stuff should come up showing you or even having an image you can download to boot into DOS of a CD-R
