Either your using poor blank media or your drive is going bad.And don't change your DMA it's fine.

Destination Media Type: DVD+R (Disc ID: PRODISC-R05-01) (Speeds: 2,4x; 4x; 8x; 12x; 16x)

My guess is it's your media.If I was you I would start using Sony,Verbatim,TDK or Taiyo Yuden

google is giving me some strange results for this drive and those verbatim blanks
dma 3?
bus may be hosed
those sony disks should have worked

**Karai** · 30 Dec 2006, 02:19 AM

Then, what can i do?
Verbatim and Sony used in this test some weeks ago burns well, but today doesn't.
I have tried to change the ide bus by other one, but happens same errors.
It's time to throw the DVD Writer to the trash, and buy a new one?
Can some one tell me what exactly steps do in order to make my Philips DVD writer burns ok?
Thank you for your comments Chewy and BR7!

start with this and we can see what might be corrupting the bus

that's as clean as mine

next thing to check is put the drive on a good cable all by itself at the end and jumper it master

boot into safe mode and reflash the drive with it empty

another thing to check is make sure the ide controller for the drive shows
default microsoft drivers

**Karai** · 30 Dec 2006, 02:42 AM

Oks, i am going to try this, but, how can i "reflash the drive with it empty"
Thanks, other time

I have download another time the update firmware from

http://www.storageupdates.philips.com/en/dvdrw.html#16

I have put the DVD writer as single and master
I have restarted as safe mode in windows
Now i am going to update de firmware using the .exe showed at the upper link

**Chewy** · 30 Dec 2006, 02:57 AM

download the firmware, make sure the drive(burner) is empty(no dvd's)

boot into safe mode? then execute the flash

what does device manager say for your ide drivers

**Karai** · 30 Dec 2006, 03:02 AM

Have i got to use devfilter before reboot?
Or reboot in normal mode and then use devfilter?

your devfilter is good
no problems

your drive is probably bad but the reflash is free

some people replace a drive and find out it was a cable or their power supply
or even a corrupt firmware

**Karai** · 30 Dec 2006, 03:17 AM

Then I have got to throw it to the trash?

**Chewy** · 30 Dec 2006, 03:23 AM

keep it till you get a new drive working, what if your cable was bad or your power supply?

even try it in another computer

**Karai** · 30 Dec 2006, 03:25 AM

Ok! Thank you for your help
