Experiencing Difficulty Using DVD RB and CCE? If So, Then Ask Your Questions Here.

@mark9977

Have you set any of the "TargetSectors" values? I've never known rebuilder to oversize with the defaults. The only other cause I've seen has been related to an incorrect CCE version selection.

At the very least we need system specs and DVD name and software versions. The .ini file and log would also be nice.
I agree with Brobear. Uninstall all components. Use the installer package to reinstall the latest version. Do a normal 2 pass with CCE. If there is still a problem try HC encoder to check if the encoder the the problem.

Get back to us.

 

Thanks Alkohol. Would you recomend overclocking a 2.6 ghz machine to produce faster results?

If so, how would I safely go about doing it.


Also, Could you take a look at this prob too?

As I said, I had been using Nero Vision 4 to put my project to hard disc, then DVD-RB/ CCE to get it to DVD-R size.... Any way, I posted my problem here....

OC(ing) requires a board with the capability to do so. Most OEM boards won't. A lot depends on your system and its components. If you have to put much money into updating to be able to OC, you're probably better off building a custom with a higher capacity CPU (which can be OC(ed) even higher).

 

Hi,

Ok I will do a uninstall/reinstall and cleanup, then try again. I will get back to you all in a day or so.

Cheers, Mark

 

I have an OEM board, so I guess it is out of the question.

Oh Well...

Some OEM boards do allow for overclocking just not Dell, compaq/HP, or sony or any well know commercial grade (micron computers used to allow it). Some can also have their bios chip reprogramed to that of the origianl manufacturer or you can in some cases order a bios chip custom made from here or least you used to be able to. Companies like Dell don't make their motherboards so the trick is to find out who did and then get the manufacturers bios and reflash yours with it or have it done for you by these folks.

If you have an OEM board then you probably have a better chance at over clocking than a branded board such as HP, Dell, or what ever..... Your Gigabyte, MSI, and ASUS to name just a few OEM boards are fairly easy to over clock.... However things like what brand of RAM and cooling (especially cooling) you have can have more of a bearing on the out come than your your Mother Board.

You can google it and get some really good suggestions.....

Just my opinion...... Your milage may varry substantually though!

Guess you missed the connection I was making. The PC original equipment manufacturer such as HP, Dell, Gateway and the like. Having a Dell, I know it's a difficult task to try to find out who made the board. All I know is that mine is a Dell OEM 2035. Anyone know who made it, I'd appreciate the info.

Asus, MSI, and Gigabyte are considered by most to be builders of Custom boards, though they do make some boards for manufactured PCs (at least I know Asus does). I guess sometimes the terminology gets confused.

Perhaps I should have said the manufacturers of the majority of PCs have locked boards.

JXP2307
What brand and model PC do you have and what are some of the specs? That's one way to figure out if it's possible.

I've found many a board with this little app, CTBIOS. It's in German but you should be able to identify the bios string with it and then type that into google and it might lead you to your boards maker.

It still says it's an OEM board with a Phoenix BIOS, version 1.10 A07 for Dell.

 

When you load CTBios you have to hit enter to get it to move along different pages.

 

I did.

 

All the way to where it closes.

There has to be a clue somewhere as to who makes your board and chances are that it only differs from the manufacturers board by the bios chip and its programming.

 

If I knew what the clue was, it would have saved me a few bucks. No one at Dell or on the Dell forums seemed to want to talk or know anything about the board. In fact, my legwork helped some others when it came to upgrading their processors. The board I'm using only supports the Northwood processors and not Prescots, though the chipset supports the Prescot on other boards.

 

And since socket 478 also supports prescotts, the difference has to be in the bios.

 

Give the man a cigar.

 

This means that if you go to the CTBIOS website and make a request they can probably identify your board and offer for sale a replacement bios and chip.

 

I have an e-machine W4682.

Everything is stock except the video card I put in, and upgraded RAM.
