Hi there, I have recently downloaded nero 6.6.0.18 after another error see thread http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/514846 i dont think this is related to that and everything was fine for a couple of days but my write speeds are suddenly fluctating? Hope I am okay to start a new thread. sometimes it can take upto 45 mins to burn (copy of a copy dvd or cd) so they do copy but take ages, whereas as previously it would only take 5-10 mins max depends on size of copy task ?

NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\AllocateCDROMs : 0 (Security Option) ================================================ The situation is, before it only seemed to affect it when i was using the copy dvd facility but it seems to have affected copy cd as well. The buffer bar goes crazy as well and never settles. The write speed is X4 on dvds When i check the info tool the write speed is 'greyed out' also on occasions when i am ready to 'copy'! I have read some previous posts and checked and made sure that 'DMA is available' as it ws showing PIO, but it does now say it is on for Primary, IDE and Master. I also uninstalled and re-installed but still no difference ? So to recap occasionally : 1] Burn fails after about 75% 2] Write speed is extremely slow, so much that i cant use the pc or surf or do other tasks like i could previously 3] Write speed varies between cd and dvd, it is intermittent, one minute its okat for 1 disc then it goes very slow again Also when i checked the info tool, i noticed the aspi is corrupted, it said that in bold red writing , whats all that about ? Please help, any advice appreciated
Hi mgk Here's a few suggestions: DVD-Copy on the fly Turn this off - the 1st log failure is cause the drive had a problem reading the source disc. Copy on the Fly does it in real time so any little glitch like a read error (that may be able to be read through in another few seconds or so) and bam coaster. Which aspi is showing corrupted? Nero uses it own in Nero 6. ASPI are usually onlu used by older programs. But a corrupt one can interfere. Or can you post a screen shot?
Thanks for the reply binkie7 But how do you ''turn off'' Dvd on the fly ? Sorry i am a complete novice. I do copy directly from the drives all the time. What alternative is there, that is as quick and easy or should i say more reliable ? By the way some more information for you. also the dma was switched to on, so how can it go off ? Incidentally nero aspi was okay as you assumed, Any help appreciated heres my latest log from a burn fail Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.71 (0002), size=45056 bytes, created 16/07/2004 09:24:34 ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 26/10/2004 18:35:34 Nero Version: 6.6.0.18 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 18e (Nero Express) Recorder: <_NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A> Version: 1.0C - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8163B>Version: 0L23 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : Maxtor 6Y120L0 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8163B atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8163B D: CDRom0 _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A E: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 83886080 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 1023MB (1048048kB) Free physical memory: 420MB (430656kB) Memory in use : 58 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 2.6.2007 CD Copy 22:23:58 #1 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 2948 _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A Buffer underrun protection activated 22:23:58 #2 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 22:23:58 #3 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A running 22:23:58 #4 Phase 48 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 Analyzing disc 22:23:59 #5 CDCOPY -1 File CDCopy.cpp, Line 1912 The CD is copyrighted 22:24:00 #6 Text 0 File CDCopy.cpp, Line 2128 _Index0_ _______Index1_______ PostPause ___LastBlockOfTrack_ Track 1: 0 0 ( 0:02.00) 1112 1111 ( 0:16.61) Track 2: 1112 1262 ( 0:18.62) 46702 46701 ( 10:24.51) Track 3: 46702 46852 ( 10:26.52) 166466 166465 ( 37:01.40) Track 4: 166466 166616 ( 37:03.41) 275621 275620 ( 61:16.70) 22:24:00 #7 Text 0 File CDCopy.cpp, Line 840 Copy options: copy on-the-fly: ON read ISRC/MCN: OFF use jitter correction: OFF data options ignore read error: ON write defekt blocks OFF read raw data: OFF read r-w subchannel data: OFF audio options ignore read error: ON read indexes: OFF read r-w subchannel data: OFF source disc does not look like CD Extra 01. 0 - 1262 = 1262, data (TRM_DATA_RAW_MODE2, block size 2352) 02. 1262 - 46852 = 45590, data (TRM_DATA_RAW_MODE2, block size 2352) 03. 46852 - 166616 = 119764, data (TRM_DATA_RAW_MODE2, block size 2352) 04. 166616 - 275621 = 109005, data (TRM_DATA_RAW_MODE2, block size 2352) 22:24:00 #8 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using CD-R/RW media 22:24:00 #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 359846 ( 79:59.71) Last address to be written: 275620 ( 61:16.70) 22:24:00 #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 22:24:00 #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A;

read errors cause it to switch to PIO mode You want the drive in DMA mode thats what is causing the slow down in your're burning time to fix it read this guide you can fix it in device manager http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260038
Here's a link for the adaptec aspi w/ instructions - link. Reading from a drive in pio can be part of the slowness - it's a much slower rate for data transfer. @aabbccdd Txs for the pic!
