Task manager will show you everything running. For now though since your not multi tasking just disconnect from the internet and anti virus (just turn it back on when done. Depending on who you're using some can be resource hogs. But Shrink is pretty intensive too. To change the burn spped in Shrink - when you click 'backup' there's a burn settings tab. Your can change your burn speed there. If you are using the same drive to read & write from (which it looks like you are) you may be limited on your burn speed options. Depending on your drive it may only list the burn speeds of the source disc and max. Or you read from the one drive and write to the external - when the blank is inserted shrink will list the burn options on the blank. To burn with decrypter from shrink. First open decrypter then go to mode and pick iso write. Set your burn speed to 4x at the bottom. Make sure the drive your want to burn too is selected under designation. Close decrypter. In shrink once you click 'backup' under 'select backup target' pick 'iso file image & burn w/ DVD Decrypter'. The media may be the problem here but let's see how this goes.
So i just tried to burn using DVD Decrypter. It was working fine up to 19% burning when I got an error and it failed the error said error reading data - cyclic redundancy check. I had the burn speed set at 4X
You got a little farther but still a coaster. You've cleaned up the pc. So we need to rule out the media your using - playo not good and neither are the moser baer (imations one's I think). See if you can borrow some better media (ones listed above) or pick some up - depending where you are there are weekly sales. How much hard drive space do you have left out of how much? Any other changes on this pc since this problem started?
I'm gonna see if I can borrow some media from a friend. I have 39 GB of free hard drive space out of 80 GB
Okay - hopefully media better will do the trick. If not you will probably need to check the hard drive for errors. 41 gig may take a bit. But let's try the media 1st.
Oh yes!! Those and Taiyo Yuden are the best! Grab some of them and try again. Let's keep the burn speed for now at 4x or 6x.
Do a trade w/ your friend. Trade away some of those Imations On 2nd thought if they're good friend may not be a good idea
Haha, he's a good friend. I'm guessing the only person I'll be trading those imations to is the trash can if the Verbatim disk works.
Crap, Verbatim got my hopes up as it started burning, got to 16% (on my internal burner, which I hadn't had one even get to 1% on since the problem began), but then got my standard error of problem reading data. Not sure where to go with this next. HEre's the error report.

Oh no - that dang read error! Okay I haven't totally run out of suggestions just yet so let's see what we can do. Now when you tried the external in another pc - did you try the same DVD? What's changed pc wise since you were last able to burn? Look in Nero ToolKit>Info Tool>ASPI Tab. Does anything show as corrupted there? Next I would suggest reading from one drive then burning to say the external. Or save to the hard drive 1st then open the files in Nero or Decrypter(decrypter only burns iso's)and try to burn Last you can do a hard drive check for errors. But let try the above 1st.
Just got home from work, thanks for your continued help binkie7. Yes, I used the same DVD on both drives. I tried the Nero Info Tool, nothing seems to be corrupted. I also have already tried backing it up on one drive and burning with the other, and copying it with Shrink and then going into Nero and burning it that way, no luck.
Okay - what has changed pc wise since you were able to burn? Add/update any programs/browser etc. From your 1st post when you tried to open the file in Shrink - you said you received an error - did it say anything besides unable to open? If you still have an .iso or the video_ts try and play it from the pc and let's see what happens. In the aspi tab in Nero what aspi's drivers and version # are listed in there? editted to add: Is this the only problem your having w/ the pc?
The only thing I can think of that has changed is that I am on a different internet connection. The last time I remember burning successfully was when I was at college, and now am at home. When I tried to open the files in Shrink the error I got was "cyclic redundancy error" something along those lines. I opened a Video_TS and it worked fine in VLC Media Player. This is the only problem I have had with my computer at all. It is fairly new, I think I got it in October-ish. Ok under System Aspi I have: WNASPI32.DLL Version 4.6 (1021) ASPI32.SYS Version 4.6 (1021) WINASPI.DLL Version 4.6 (1021) WOWPOST.EXE Version 4.6 (1021) Under Nero ASPI I have: WNASPI32.DLL Version 2.0.1.74
Hmmm getting more perplexing. If the file was corrupted I wouldn't think you could play it. The are 2 newer versions of the drivers you have listed but that may not help. Your do have the latest one for Nero. There seems to be a communication problem between your drive and hard drive - could be why there is an error reading data. Try a new file - use can use the same dvd - burning w/ dvd decrypter. But 1st see what you have set here in decrypter(might throw this one out the window) Go to Tools>Settings>I/O tab - under interface which one is checked? Not using IE7 as your browser? You can still do a Chkdsk on the hard drive for errors but that takes awhile and will lock you out until done.
In DVD Decrypter, SPTI - Microsoft is selected under interface. I use Mozilla Firefox as my internet explorer to answer your other question.
Dang!! Shot another one down. (I use firefox too) Sorry for all the questions btw but one more for you- is it only 1 movie on this pc giving you this problem or does it happen to other ones you try?
