Nero Error!! What does this log mean?

[cynthia]

On the back of your burner there is a connection:

OK - the ATAPI error **062900 in the first log means "Power on reset or bus device reset occurred". The unit was turned off? Actually, could be anything, from out-of-date firmware, DMA off, bad IDE cables, crappy media etc.

The second log is your normal garden variety "write error" **030c00, which could be a drive problem or lousy media or DMA issue.

In this case, I'd blame the Ritek G05's as usual. What a reputation these lot have. Try new media - Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim.

And while you're at it, try your next burn with DVD Decrypter.

Saw that suggestion - burn with DVD Decrypter in one of the threads - it also gave errors.

[blutach]

It's a real good bet on the media on this one cynthia.

By the way, here's one of the best pages for burning problems - should be an FAQ all by itself (EDIT: Now done - see here). Just pick the 3 sets of numbers and find out what's going on and the suggested remedy.

PS. The suggestion for DVD Decrypter was to get around the "prehistoric" as jmet put it version of Nero.

One suggestion, if I may would be for running the nero info tool,
it's free and updated, if it doesn't properly identify the burner and
ide setups, something is wrong with the hardware configuration.

Can you write DVD's with the DVD Decrypter

[blutach]

Yes. From DVD Shrink:

Backup → Select backup target → ISO image file and burn with DVD Decrypter

You are still persevering with those Ritek G05s, which have an ugly reputation.

How about trying with Verbatims or Taiyo Yudens?

What was your write speed?

Regards

[rayrighteous]

What are verbatims, and my write speed was 6x.

[Miss Marple]

Verbatim is a brand of discs. Fuji is another brand.

[blutach]

Need to lower it to 4x. Verbatim is a brand of disk - and a darn good one. Get a few of them and see how they go!

Regards

[rayrighteous]

aiight I will try the verbatims and what does Ritek G05s mean? Oh I was using the Maxell brand DVD's are those not good?

[blutach]

Ritek G05 is the media ID code of your disk - they have a varied reputation, particularly those sold under the Maxell brand.
