Switch to Verbatim 2.4x MKM-001 made in Singapore media for dual layer burning. This is the only media we recommend for DL burning. Moreover, burning at 4x across USB is unwise - you get all those Sephamore Timeout errors. As well, try to move your burner to an internal IDE drive. Regards

kabster - please read this and then you'll understand. If you already understand the history, then this simply confirms my thoughts about you. Regards

Archive is easy - each file has an archive attribute. When a file is modified, the archive bit is set. So, you can backup only modified files by selecting only those with the archive bit set. Regards

See pink bit at top. We need log! Regards

Isn't My Computer on your desktop? If not, Is it in the Start menu? Otherwise, hold down the Windows Key and press Break. Regards

See this then - http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread...;threadid=44808 Regards

Just turn verify on. And dont take chances with crud media like Ritek D01s. Regards

Acronis True Image is a good program to clone and backup stuff. Regards

Is it the hardest thing to delete a little file? Maybe pop it on the desktop when creating it for easy access. Regards

Read pink bit at top - it was made for intelligentsia and morons alike. However, it essentially means your drive can't read your (probably crappy) media. Regards

Get rid of the Ritek-D01s and buy Verbatim MKM-001, 2.4x Made in Singapore. Update your firmware to 1030 - see here. Regards

As always, go buy some Verbatims or Taiyo Yudens. And keep your firmware up to date. Regards

@AC Your avatar's top half also looks "solid", sad to say. Regards

Way to go lmao2k and 08. Have a great birthday, mate. Regards

Yup - either the burn is bad or the drive is going south or both. Regards

Use the ISO/UDF bridge (both filesystems) - although standalone players will typically only read UDF 1.02 ISO is there for backwards compatibility with older Windows systems. Regards

That was in response to a request from a member who wanted it (mighta been you!) Regards

Bum burn. Please look at pink bit at top. Regards

And buy some good blanks like Verbatims or Taiyo Yuden. Regards

This is coming up over and over and over already. Heed the boss's words Regards

Perhaps he needs better protocol :D Regards

Ahem - see post 29 of this thread fordman. Regards

They are not imposters. They are made by MBI under contract from MCC. Regards

If your drive won't even play an original DVD, it sounds like it is no good. You can try a drive cleaning kit (about $10) - but a new drive might be even more value for money. You can also try uninstalling the drive from Windows and reinstalling it and rebooting - a driver might have gone astray. Regards

@Shamus - 2 different posters mate. zelenin was backing up what you were saying Regards
