*Try a different Brand of Disc(Verbatum Ty's) **Reduce the burn speed to 4x or 8x **Reduce the Target size to 4300 (You may not need to do this if you have Good Quakity Disc.) The Disc you Have Aren't considered Quality Disc. **Check for a Firmware Update for your Drive You Could also replace that 52x CD burner with a new SState of the art Dvd Burner For about 30 bucks. (If you Wanted)
Firmware YYS7 http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2239 Yes the media has mixed results. Add to that the fast burn rate and old firmware, not good. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia?dvdmediadvdridsearch=CMC MAG. AM3
Thank you both I will try the suggestions and let you know how I get on. Can you recommend a good quality disc, I am in the UK. Do they need to be DVD-R Or R+ or whatever. Thanks again Jeff
and last but not least you might like to turn the dma on these 2 back on yeah definitely go back to the 4300mb mark.I doubt i would agree with berryone advice about you may not need to if you get better quality discs as anything past the 4300 mb mark on a disc is really on the outskirts of the disc and is where the dye is the most unevenest and where errors start to creep into your burns.However according to your log file you are trying to burn to the very edge
Sorry for being so daft but how do I do this: Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DiskPeripheral : Maxtor 6Y160M0 YAR5 viasraid Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : DH1144D PLX523E 1.0 dtscsi Port 4 ID 0 DMA: Off -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- you might like to turn the dma on these 2 back on Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last possible write address on media: 2298495 (510:46.45, 4489MB) Thanks Jeff
