Hello all,
I just bought a DVD burner about a week ago, and every single time I attempt to burn a DVD nero crashes during the "file caching" stage. (about 1-2 seconds into the burn). I've gone through the forum, and tried a lot of things. Here are my system specs:
AMD Athlon XP 1700+ (1.46 ghz)
512 MB ram
GeoForce 4 TI
Hi-Val 4x DVD burner (the one giving me issues)
Pacific Digital 48X burner
These share a cable, the PD is the master
30 GB HD
Mother Board = "Mico-star international"
chipset 1 = VIA technologies inc
bus = ISA AGP PCI 1mb
That's all I can think of right now, if you want any more info just ask and I'll find it.
This si what I've tried so far to fix the problem:
I installed the "forced atapi" program
I updated the furmware for the DVD+/- drive
disconnected the other cd-rom to attempt another burn
bought different media.
Also, I can't seem to get into the "advanced" tab to active DMA on the drive. When I go to the device manager/IDE ATA//ATAPI and right click on the controller I don't see an "advanced" for any of the three controllers. The 3 ones shown are:
"Primary Untra ATA/ATAPI Channel"
"Secondary Ultra ATA/ATAPI Channel"
"VIA Bus Master Ultra ATA Controller (dual mode)"
Lastly, after I installed the force atapi software windows XP began detecting another drive. The ones I should have are:
"CD-RW CD-R SW48 SCSI CdRom Device" and
"GENERIC DVD DUAL 4xMax SCSI CdRom Device"
but after I installed force atapi this begain showing up:
"AXV CD/DVD-ROM SCSI CdRom Device" and I can't seem to remove it.
Does anyone know what I should do to resolve this problem?
