Hi guys I can use my PC to backup my dvd collection, but can't copy my video files to a blank dvd on the drive??? Pentium 4, 2.8, msi mb, win xp m/cntr, 128mb grfx, lg 12x dual layer dvd burner My PC thinks this is a cd rom drive... Upgraded mb and grfx card 2nd hand, but good msi mb Cd burner and dvd burner on one ide 1, dvd was primary, cdrw as slave When i go to my computer, right click on the burner drv (E), say cdrom and file system as "raw" Any ideas??? PS The drive worked perfect b4 upgrade, but, still think is fine, and the blame elsewhere Cheers
hi what type files are the video files? you cant copy, also what do you want to do with these files? did you load all drivers for via / sound / codecs etc after upgrading? did you change jumpers for the drives or are they still the same as before?
I loaded the latest firmware for the LG drive I am not sure if the jumpers were moved, a friend did it I have tried both avi and mpeg, to no avail... But, I can drag a "less than cd" size file on, and burn onto a cd But, try it with a larger movie file, and it gives me an error For the program, I am using Nero Startsmart I have also tried to paste the video file onto the drive in my computer, then "write these files to disc" I have a dvd player that reads and plays clips like that, on our tv Soooooo frustrating
hi i still think its drivers for the mobo / drives! like the dma settings etc! need to find out what your friend did for you if you didnt set it up... pentium would use intel accelrator drivers or via4in1 ? i am an AMD man myself not pentium... --------------------------
