hi to all,
I recently installed a BENQ DVD burner (DV400 A)
I alway get one wasted dvd every two DVDs burnt.
The message window keep telling 'Communication Error' and 'failed writing'
My PC settings are:
Operating System: WIN ME
Processore: PENTIUM 800
RAM: 320 Mb
IDE Primary Master: HARD DISK 20 Gb
IDE Primary Slave: ATAPI DVD-RW 4X BENQ
IDE Secondary Master: HARD DISK Maxtor 80 Gb
IDE Secondary Slave: Mast. CD-Rom SHUTTLE WAitec
Burning Software: NERO 6
I always put the DVD data on the 'secondary master' Hard Disk while I burn by the BENQ burner on the IDE primary Slave.
I've alway thought it was the best way: two drives on two separate IDEs.
I don't think it can be a buffer underrun problem.
Maybe a hardware problem but which one?
I noticed everything is ok on burning DVD when I turn on the PC and soon start burning: maybe the processor is not that hot...
The rate of failed DVDs is higher when I use the PC for a long time..
but telling the true I'm not that sure about that opinion..
I guess to have installed the latest ASPI driver-
As I can't afford to waste so many DVDs, is there someone downthere able to help me? I got several answers all along the net but any of them filled my trouble. I need something working!
I was forgetting.. When I launch Nero InfoTools and it starts checking the hardware I always get the famous WIN ME blue message about locking of the system - press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart.
Doest it help?
Thanks in advance to everyone.
Fabrizio
