  1. I have used just about any Cd-r to hand out of thousands and only a handful have been failures. Hard to say which is best but I have never been a fan of verbatim Cd-r media. Not that they fail anymore than others. I suppose/presume Taiyo Yuden Cd-r will be top notch.
  2. 1 of my xbox 360,s has a 120 gig hard drive and all my xbox's - xbox 360's have a full analogue controller. My xbox 360,s also do 1080p the same as my Ps3's. I think they are both as good as each other. Play games not war.
  3. Is this not an issue with alcohol 120 or daemon tools. Close them etc.
  4. would be worth dropping to dos and seeing if you could flash it in xp at least try xp safe mode as well, change the Ide cable switch drive in bios to use pio mode as well
  5. Nope I knicked it from Pc World but when I got it home it had a Toaster in side it
  6. Happy Birthday Here's your present, you can have the box.

    New PC build

    Is it optimised for CPU if so switch to Throughput Especially Nvidia Marvell based and make sure Switch is Gigabit as well (Sorry I know you know that bit)
  8. You got any log files from the ritek burns as I have some of these and they are not actually the worst dual layers you could have bought they are just a bit fussy in which writer they work in and the write speed selected. I would like to see the log so I can comment on the possibility of getting the rest of them to write and verify OK for you so you do not have to bin them. You did the right thing in getting the Verbatim though as long as they are Singapore or at least a good batch from MII
  9. You need to be contacting the manufacturer of your laptop or hardware to see what gives with regards to firmware etc or try in another home DVD player if you have not done that already.
  10. It's unlikely that drive supports that media as the drive is getting on abit now. Seems last firmware is dated 2004 Philips Firmware Upgrade For type: ED16DVDRK ED16DVDRK/00 ED16DVDRK/05 Æ Drive type number on label For string: ED16DVDR Æ Drive name in windows From firmware: B5S2 B5S3 To firmware: B5S6 Date: 15 December 2004 Changes: Form firmware B5S2 to B5S3 - Improved writing quality on DVD+R 2,4x with adip code “MCC001” - Improved writing quality on DVD+R 8x with adip code “Philips 081” - Improved playability of some audio CDs. Form firmware B5S3 to B5S6 - Improved writing quality on DVD+R 8x with adip code “TDK002” - Improved playability of some audio CDs.
  11. see here http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtop...amp;hl=booktype
  12. I must be lucky as I aint got a dvd player that pauses at all on any dual layer. I have a few home dvd players and regardless of seamless option never noticed it before, well maybe in the early days on my accoustic solution £128 dvd player I did but dvd players since no signs of pause at all.
  13. Disable it in settings and accept the risk the disc will be unusable if something goes wrong just after lead in. If your benq is in an enclosure then they chipset enclosure is blocking it.
  14. I looked on ebay uk and still pretty dear
  15. most modern lcd tvs upscale as well to some degree although it's a play on words. There are normal dvd players that will upscale
  16. use memtest+ to check for memory errors
  17. Maybe consider flashing to a benq after you figure it out http://club.cdfreaks.com/f92/benq-how-flasher-171380/
  18. Also check for Ide driver updates especially if your Ide is Jmicron.
  19. Change the Ide cable to the older CD/RW no better take off the CD/RW [edit] I intially only saw the USB and having looked again saw the cd/rw in list original response Try a combo of both if the opposite device is the one your having trouble with.
  20. Chris replied to your 2nd bug report.
