NERO can not keep a Data CD Open- no multisession

**locoeng** · 15 Aug 2008, 02:22 PM

Nero 6 history log location: Program Files>Ahead>Nero>NeroHistory.txt

I don't think it would be a firmware issue.

I'll post the log in a while...but in the meantime I opened the disc in another PC having a BENQ COMBO CD523C (CD-DVD combo drive- CD ROM/RW but DVD ROM). In it the same disc can be seen as Open Session by both CDBurner XP and NERO (same version as mine)!!! I even wrote some data to check and the writing completed successfully. Now I am more confused!!!

**src2206** · 20 Aug 2008, 05:22 AM

Ok I found the solution,- accidentally and also after buying a new ASUS Lightscribe DVD RW drive,

.

The trouble occurred because of the presence of sptd.sys file which comes with virtual drive emulation software like DAEMON tools. Removing this driver solves the problem.

**locoeng** · 21 Aug 2008, 03:06 AM

I didn't see anything in your log except this...

CdRomPeripheral : LITE-ON DVDRW SHM-165H6SHS0E JRAID Port 4 ID 0 DMA: Off

...and the Roxio driver, but neither I would think would cause your problems. Glad you got it sorted.

Yes that's a rootkit for sure, damn malware, everytime I boot into safe mode I get an error where it tries to load that same driver.

time for a little regedit

**Chewy** · 21 Aug 2008, 03:48 AM

wasn't in the registry, but in the system32 drivers folder

JRAID Port 4 ID 0 DMA: Off

jmicron has issues with pata

JMicron-Leading the Storage Revolution!

http://www.jmicron.com/Driver.htm

check you bios for what mode the controller is set to

**src2206** · 23 Aug 2008, 01:44 PM

Hello chewy

Thank for your reply.

Which registry entries should I edit?

check you bios for what mode the controller is set to

sorry again, but could you please explain it a little bit more? I mena what exactly should I look for? In case you require, my mobo is ASUS p5B-VM and the processor is Intel 4300C2D.

Thank you again.

**Chewy** · 23 Aug 2008, 11:25 PM

look in device manager for a jmicron controller and the date of the driver

look in bios and see what choices there are for setting the jmicron mode to

I will download the manual later and give it a look, but you need a head start

know thy bios

**src2206** · 24 Aug 2008, 02:32 PM

Thanks

Updated JMicron....
In the BIOS I found three options in JMicron settings: RAID, BASIC and AHCI- and in my case it is set to BASIC.

**Chewy** · 24 Aug 2008, 03:29 PM

Updated JMicron....

that usually solves a lot of glitches, I wouldn't blame nero for this as even Imgburn has issues with the jmicron chipsets

**src2206** · 30 Aug 2008, 12:32 PM

Hello chewy

A new problem has come up with my IDE LITE ON burner. It is recognized by windows as a DVD-RAM drive alright, but as I put any kind of disc in (CD/DVD), the explorer simply hangs. That is if I try to open "My Computer" nothing shows up, the MY Computer window hangs. The disc which is in can not be read. As soon as I take the disc out of the LITE ON drive, everything comes back to normal.

Any idea how can this be solved?

**Chewy** · 30 Aug 2008, 12:44 PM

try removing the drive from device manager and let windows redetect

and I would use imgburn to remove those pesky sonic/poxio filter drivers

this is why I never let any third party software install a driver that can hose the spti bus

**src2206** · 30 Aug 2008, 12:58 PM

Thanks for replying

How do you use ImgBurn to "Remove" those drivers?
