I don't think its related at all - but is there any reason why you haven't installed SP2 for xp ?
with possible driver issues you may have hit the nail on the head, the registry tweak might help,
but what would be causing xp to error out the drive so quickly?

has arrived in masse on your side of the pond.

It is a dell laptop. inspiron 9200, bout a year old.
the bios is 7 pages, none of em seem to have anything about transfer mode
windows definitly thinks it has DMA mode.
primary channel is ultra dma 5
and secondary is ultra dma 2
do a read test of a disk with dvdinfopro or cdspeed
hope that's not a matshieta burner

deteorating quickly, check a few every few months or so.

Thanks a bunch, chewy. I guess these look a lot better, huh?
I just found out the 8x part a few weeks ago, looked for a 1693, but i was too late

Just wanted to give an update:
I recieved a new drive yesterday, and now everything works flawlessly.
25 perfect burns so far, so it was a faulty drive after all.
Thanks for all your help!
so much for quality control!

use 4x scanning for 3rd generation liteon drives, 8x for 4th and 5 th generations.

I don't believe I have those priviledges yet, chewy. I tried attaching a graph and it says "Upload failed. You are not permitted to upload a file with that extension." I clicked on "add this attachment", etc. Am I going about it the wrong way?
just use imageshack
-
believe me , 8x doesn't work either
did you rma it?

Turned AnyDVD off and all verifys fine now..............
The question is why start doing this to me last night as i have always had anydvd running ?
Our's is not to reason why, just burn or die, it's common knowledge never use anydvd/dvd43 when you don't need them. I use the analogy of camels and straw, some people think their camels can haul an infinite amount of straw, they blame that last piece that broke it's back.

I'm getting fairly consistent scans with RITEK G05's and TYG03's. I'm using a Lite-On SOHW 1653S (CSOT) (crossflashed from a 1633S). My drive doesn't scan jitter, but I seem to almost always get only one (on rare occasion two) PIF that is high (about 160) at almost the same point in the graph,right after the 1.5GB mark.
The rest of the graph shows a small group of PIF's at about 5, and most of the rest under 2. My burn graphs at 4X show speeds almost as straight as an arrow. But why the one spike, which results in an overall quality rating of about 70-80%?
post a scan of the TYG03 and the speed burned at

I was at Costco (a giant wholesaler) just a little while ago and saw TDK + and - DVD's 16X printables on sale, buy one get one free 200 for $42.00 . Oh please tell me there's some great dye on them
TDK was one of the first name brands to sully their rep. Maxell was next.
I would go for the -R's
Price: $40 Purchased from: www.costco.com Date purchased: December 2005

explain chewy
His pie totals are half mine and jitter slight less, I had always believed that PIF's were most important.
Evidently NicW thinks otherwise. It's a very subjective field.
-
tells me you can scan with your drive
not a good scan though
compare it to this
now I can have a pif total 1/3 of yours and a lower pif max and get a lower QS???
now i am starting to get a clue to the weighting of the formula

Looks like all my scanning with dvdinfo freebie advert comflict waiting to crash will have to be done
on another box which is dedicated and not online!
After the hunt for a better burn with an 8x burn on benq with sony, I started scanning with infopro and saving
graphs etc. All in all I scanned this disk 6 times, 3 with cdspeed, 3 times with dvdinfo. I surfed and answered posts during the first 5 scans, all the cdspeed ones showed a total PIF of ~100, the first 2
dvdinfo showed in the thousands, WTF! I ran the dvdinfo again and didn't surf and got this, must be some
sort of bad conflict between the ads and web pages open. The first 2 dvdinfo showed horrible PIF max's,
but the graph had no large spikes!
