hello all,for some strange reason my dvd burner stopped burning.First it would say power calibration error and now it wont burn dvds at all.Even when I use dvdshrink,and dvdxcopy,and Nero it cannot write to dvd.I can burn cds using cool cd burner but not with any other program.It reads dvds and cds just fine though.Its an NEC 6500a firmware
heres my nero log,sorry I put this thread in the wrong forum Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 10/26/2004 5:35:34 PM Nero Version: 6.6.0.8 (Nero Express) Recorder: <_NEC DVD+-RW ND-6500A> Version: 203D - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.8 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <_NEC DVD+-RW ND-6500A>Version: 203D - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.8 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : HTS548060M9AT00 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : _NEC DVD+-RW ND-6500A atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : Generic DVD-ROM 1.0 d347prt Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : Generic DVD-ROM 1.0 d347prt Port 2 ID 1 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : AXV CD/DVD-ROM 2.2a a347scsi Port 3 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === _NEC DVD+-RW ND-6500A D: CDRom5 Generic DVD-ROM F: CDRom1 Generic DVD-ROM G: CDRom2 AXV CD/DVD-ROM H: CDRom3 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 83886080 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 1023MB (1047764kB) Free physical memory: 649MB (665296kB) Memory in use : 36 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 27.7.2005 ===== Disc-Copy over image - 1st step : Copy to image ... 1:29:38 PM #1 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 1:29:38 PM #2 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer Image Recorder running 1:29:38 PM #3 Text 0 File DVDCopy.cpp, Line 279 DVD Track-Information from source disc S01 T01 Con 0x14 Start 0 Len 2002432 (gap 0) Blank 0 Res 0 Dmg 0 Open Trk 0 Mode TRM_DATA_MODE1 (0) 1:29:38 PM #4 Text 0 File DVDCopy.cpp, Line 382 Max -1 tracks of 1 allowed to copy 1: 0 - 2002432 = 2002432, TRM_DATA_MODE1, block size 2048, read opt 0 (no read options) 1:29:38 PM #5 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3153 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 1:29:38 PM #6 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 259 Last possible write address on media: 4718591 (1048:34.41, 9215MB) Last address to be written: 2002431 (444:59.06, 3910MB) 1:29:38 PM #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 271 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 1:29:38 PM #8 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2316 Recorder: Image Recorder; CD type reading failed ATIP Data: ? 1:29:38 PM #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 433 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 1:29:38 PM #10 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 830 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (1 - Data (mode 1)) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 2002432 (2002432) = #2002432/444:59.7 not relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/not required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 2002432 blocks [Image Recorder] -------------------------------------------------------------- 1:29:38 PM #11 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1043 Prepare recorder [Image Recorder] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x40; Session Closed, disc fixated Tracks 1 to 1: 1: TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048/0x00, FilePos 0 0 4100980736, ISRC "" DAO layout: =========== __Start_|____Track_|_Idx_|_CtrlAdr_|_RecDep__________ 0 | lead-in | 0 | 0x41 | 0x00 0 | 1 | 0 | 0x41 | 0x00 0 | 1 | 1 | 0x41 | 0x00 2002432 | lead-out | 1 | 0x41 | 0x00 1:29:38 PM #12 Phase 120 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 Creating the image for burning 1:29:38 PM #13 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 2609 Verifying disc position of item 0 (not relocatable, no disc pos, no patch infos, orig at #0): write at #0 1:39:36 PM #14 Text 0 File WriterStatus.cpp, Line 116 < Image Recorder > start writing Lead-Out at LBA 2002432 (1E8E00h), lenght 0 blocks 1:39:36 PM #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransfer.cpp, Line 228 all writers idle, stopping conversion 1:39:37 PM #16 Phase 121 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 Creating Image completed successfully ===== Disc-Copy over image - 2nd step : Burn the image ... 1:39:44 PM #1 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 1:39:44 PM #2 IMAGEGEN -10 File ImageGen.cpp, Line 366 Image was written as DAO.

Have you burned anything to that media brand before? I have never heard of that disk Id before MJC ME ?? Sounds generic to me? I would try updating your firmware and or chnging your media brand to a more reputable brand like Verbatim, Fuji Film or Maxell NOT Memorex.. Your burner just isn't recognizing the media.
Hi there, Have you tried the very latest firmware v2.24 ? http://support.necsam.com/oem/downloads/flashfirmware/fw/NECND65_V224.exe There's no readme so no idea what it fixed.
hello all and thanks for your help.I am using JVC-r blanks and I have never had issues with these discs before.I tried using the firmware listed in this thread and its saying drive not detected
Good job cougar ;-) I cant provide links and stuff from here at work because half the time I can't get to them. Server here really suxs bad LOL you would swear it is dial up...
Hi there, If the NEC firmware didn't detect your drive, you probably have an OEM drive. Did it come part of a full PC ? Dell ? HP ? Gateway ? They would hold the latest firmware !
i would still recommend you switch media brands...JVC is not very good to say the least...Taiyo Yuden and Verbatim would be my suggestion...i have that dvd-burner on my laptop as well, it's very picky w/ media~ good luck
hello all.The drive was a dell drive originally a 8x burner +r but I upgraded it to the latest firmware a few months back.Im looking around the dell site but I dont see the original drivers to possibly revert my dvd drive back to its original standard
There's all sorts of firmware available for this drive. http://www.micheldeboer.nl/firmware/6500.html Mike
hello all! i have the same problem in Nero 6.6.0.15 Windows XP 5.1 NEC 6500a v.2.40 the medium is PrimeDisc DVD+R DL RITEK D01
