I am trying DVD Shrink & DVD Decrypter and seem to get the same message at the stafe wher they go to Burn (whether using Nero or not)...Starts saying writing Lead in, but never does, can't eject DVD, must re boot PC. I have the same Burner / Software set up on my old PC and that works fine. What does this mean? TIA
This could be caused by a drive/media compatibility issue. 1)Update your drives firmware to the latest version. you can check here: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_search.php enter the drive's model# in the search field, if an updated version exists just click on it to download and follow the instructions for installation. 2)Check with the manufacturer's website to see if they provide a media campatibility list for your drive, stick to media on that list. 3)Make sure you're using the most current version of nero, have decrypter or nero write at 4X. check her for nero updates: http://ww2.nero.com/enu/Downloads.html
@xelak75s You should also post your last nero log with this problem. There could be other things going on that this log will show. It can be located at crogram files>ahead>nero>nerohistory.log (nero6) or crogram files>nero>nero 7>core>nerohistory.log (nero7) Be sure to edit out your serial # - it begins w/ 1A
I will post Nerohistory shortly. In the mean time I noticed a differnce between the two machines In the Device mAnager under Drivers for the LG GSA 4167B - Driver File Details - there is a file called c:\windows\system32\drivers\pfc.sys It does not appear in my old PC which burns successfully. Could this be relevant?
I just noticed that the Nerohistory.log file has not been updated for a few days. I imagine that this points to some other problem as Nero is showing 1% when it frezes and displays the "Writing Lead In" message, therefore not getting to the stage where it writes a History
I found the following info on th website provided above Sun Aug 14, 2005 7:50 pm LG/HLDS GSA-4167B HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4167B - DL11, DL12 / OEM DJ11, DJ12 Edited by: Arzeno Last update: Sat Dec 10, 2005 12:24 pm How do I compare it to what I actually have installed? btw - I just purchased the burner 2 weeks ago
@xelak75s That's a cd/dvd driver. Other things to check: Check nero tool kit and see if an aspi is installed and not corrupted. You should also check and make sure you are in dma mode and not pio mode. Check you connections to the drive. Nero tool kit will also list your drives firmware. Has this pc you now using every burned a dvd.
The latest version is 6.6.1.4 Here is a link to update to the current version, download and install packages 1 and 2 (uncheck the tool bar option). Once the update is complete (just doulble click on each package to install), reboot, try again. Post the log if possible. http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/enu/nero-up.php Note: you can use DVD decrypter to display your drive's firmware rev level as well as have decrypter check for updates.
Started upgrade download I'm in DMA mode Loked in Tool Kit can't find anything about "ASPI" I have burnt data files to the same brand DVD disk on this PC withe the same burner and same Nero
this upgrade to nero is it just a trial version that im gonna have to purchase later or just a free upgrade to the nero i already have which is version 6. just curiose because im not having burning problema now and i dont want to start or have to purchase something i dont need.
"Sun Aug 14, 2005 7:50 pm LG/HLDS GSA-4167B HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4167B - DL11, DL12 / OEM DJ11, DJ12 " Since you state you purchased the drive youself, it's safe to assume it's not an oem. So the current version for your burner is DL12 as shown above. Run the nero tool kit, when it's done you should get a window with a bunch of tabs, look for the one that privides drive info for your drive, it's firmware version will be shown there. The updates you get from the nero site are free if you're updating software that you own.

@xelak75s In Nero Tool Kit - run Nero Info Tool. There will be a tab for aspi. What brand of media are you using?
No ASPI Installed Upgraded frirmware to DL13 Upgraded Nero to Package 1 and 2 as requested Running Shrink - will report shortly

@xelak75s This new problem is due to 6.6.1.4. Shrink it seems can no longer autoburn w/ nero. I don't know of a fix for this yet. I'm going back to a previous version. So you can open nero burning rom and burn the video_ts w/ this that shrink has saved to your hd. Shrink will still autoburn with decrypter so you could pick 'iso image file and burn w/ decrypter' under 'select back up target'in the target device tab when you click back up. You just need to make sure you have decrypter open will shrink is encoding.
i just run the nero uninstaller from the nero website and downloaded the latest version and still have the same problem I will try uninstall again and install an earlier version apprecitae all of your help
