Someone Help! Illegal Disk??Burn Failure

[LD!]

awrighty.The only other media i have on hand is some Phillips DVD+R 1-8x.The only thing I'm skeptical about is after reading the Media FAQ, these disks are also made in Taiwan.So I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed and try burning with this media thru DVD Shrink.Wish me luck.

[blutach]

Good luck. Try Taiyo Yuden, Verbatims or Riteks (except the G05s).

"how do we KNOW you weren't yelling?"

i guess you can't

In the continuation of my constant fustration, i switched the media and boom! I start burning BUT now everytime i get going it says:

BOOK TYPE: AUTOMATICALLY SET TO DVD ROM

I'm trying to change it but it keeps doin' it.

There are some higher powers out to get me......bad....real bad....

[Taelon]

Actually as long as the media is +R, setting the booktype is a good thing. It will make players think that it is a DVD-ROM, which makes it compatible with more players.

The external drive, is it usb2 on a usb1 port?
Rebadged lite-on with bad memorex firmware?

I start burning BUT now everytime i get going it says:

BOOK TYPE: AUTOMATICALLY SET TO DVD ROM

This would be a good thing (in almost every case imaginable). Leave it be.

Let 'er rip.

Pun intended.

Let 'er burn.

[blutach]

As for the booktype - please see What's bitsetting

Do not try to set it for -R disks.

If you can't uncheck it, chances are your drive does not support this feature, so don't worry.

LD you should be able to do a search from My Computer for the PXHELP20.SYS or just look in the C:\WINDOWS\system32 folder where it most likely is residing and/or you could try running the RoxiZap Tool: http://softwareupdates.roxio.com/gm/...ls/roxizap.exe

[LD!]

Thanks for all the info so far .I'm gonna try burning with the dvd-rom booktype.I'll let you all know how it goes.In the meantime since you've all been giving me great info and i've been learning so much from reading the FAQ's I'm willing to trade some specialty information of my own.That is if anyone is interested in knowing what exactly is the best tasting lite beer or how to suck at fantasy football........call me.

Seriously though thanx alot and ill be back with my results.

The external drive, is it usb2 on a usb1 port? again

[Taelon]

Ok, so i went ahead and got the v.JWS6 firmware and installed it, I then went and updated my Nero to the 6.6 and Biggity Bam!No more illegal disk failure!

And yet your log today shows Nero 6.3, what happened to 6.6?

Taelon, as far as the Roxio thing. I can't find it! I search my system for it and all that comes up is logs of my installation and uninstall of the program from december 2003.

Please see my message above, but I think your real problem is dodgy USB drivers.

Follow the instructions on this page:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329632

oh BTW, Princo is sub-par media.

[LD!]

Yah, i checked my comp and it says i have no high speed USB, try to update it and no go....am i screwed?

[LD!]

Strange thing about my last burn failure(see above post)was..It burned the DVD.I just cant skip tracks. What the frig.
