Hello

What are your discs? (brand/model/mediacode if possible)
What is your DVD burner?
Can you burn data discs without problem (with Nero for example)?

[Francksoy]

Ok just checked and saw these:

I 17:41:30 Destination Device: [1:0:0] SONY DVD RW DW-D26A JYS1 (D (SCSI)
I 17:41:30 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: TYG02) (Speeds: 4x, 6x, 8x)

***I 17:41:30 Write Speed: 2x***

I doubt TYG02 likes 2x writing... try 4x minimum, but I burn all my TYG02 @8x without problem.

With Decrypter, the best option is to leave "MAX" as the write speed in my experience.

[summerlove02]

hum well i wrote one in 4x and it was kind of choppy from the very beginning so on another post i wrote they told me to go down to 2? any suggestions on that?

[summerlove02]

nope i just tried it at 4x and max and it gave me the same error

[Francksoy]

OK too bad

When you select "MAX", at what speed does Decrypter actually starts burning? Does it actually mention "8x"? If not, maybe your drive is in PIO mode, then you just need a 80-pins cable and check that UDMA is enabled for the drive ...

If UDMA is enabled and you do have a 80-pins cable, here are things I would try:

.Updating the firmware of the Sony drive
.Uninstalling and re-installing Decrypter
.Installing ASPI 4.60 or Nero, then set Decrypter to use ASPI instead of SPTI, to see if Windows's SPTI has a problem.

Good luck

[summerlove02]

ok I am not sure what an 80 pin cable is or where it would be..and I have read several different places on the dma and how to get there.. but when i follow the directions it is not there. I can not find my primary and secondary channels. i dont know if this matter but my friend and I built this computer and I have an altered version of win xp

I do not know how to update the firmware. Someone sent me the site so i went there but it does not say how to do it and in big letters it says for advanced users only might ruin your drive? dont wanna do that ..

I only have nero 5.5 and that doesnt seem to do dvds..

and just out of curiousity if it is any of these problems would i still be able to burn on my +rw? and the day before i got the error i burned a dvd wth my -r.. so what could have happened over night? thanks for the help.

Reason I/O device error

[cornholio7]

update your chipset drivers if your burner isn't connected via a scsi interface
and update your firmware to JYS3

[summerlove02]

the only place i know where JYS3 it inst clickable.. the JYS2 is but either way i dont know how to do it .. and i dont know how to tell if my burner is or isnt connected via a scsi interfaceor how to update the chipset

[cornholio7]

you need to find out what make and model your motherboard is and update the drivers for its chipset from their support site

[summerlove02]

hi there.. well i dont know how to find out about the mobo but i did update my firmware.. it wont let me go to 3 but i can go to 2.. so i did that uninstalled and reinstalled. dvd decrypter. and got new media..


my new -r's will not work.. so right now the only thing i can get to work are my +rws.. does anyone have a clue why a week ago i could burn on a -r and now 2 different brands wont let me but I still can on th +rw..
PLEASE HELP ME i AM PULLING MY HAIR OUT

[summerlove02]

woo hoo.. I fixed it.. thank you all for all your help..

In case anyone wants to know how I fixed it...

Under IDE ATAPI I did not have primary or secondary channels.. all I had was NVIDIA nforce.. .. so I clicked on NVIDIA clicked on update drivers and waited.. after a minute a few things flashed on my screen but off before i could read them.. then it said restart? so i said ok.. when it came back on I had primary and secondary and the nvidia was gone..

I checked the DMA's and i think they are how they are suppose to be.. Still not sure why it worked 3 days ago and not since.. but anyways I just burned another dvd with the tygo 2

thanks again to everyone.. hopefully this keeps working and I am not back here in a week.. thanks
