[a bunch of errors with two drives on one PC]

so, two discs, burned at 12x on ASUS were OK. at least, it's something - till next error

 

Mmalves, could you, please, say just a few words about this RAID/IDE thing? I mean, do i have to set abovementioned setting in BIOS only for Pioneer drive? Or this IDE thing will work simultaneously for ASUS drive? What setting have to be for ASUS? I have to give the directions to people who'll help me deal with all these BIOS horrors...

[test mode not supported for DVD+R?]

Yes, the only way to know if it works is by burning a disc. Notice that this is a limitation of the +R disc standard, not ImgBurn's

 

Thanks, mmalves! No complaints to ImgBurn, moreover, looks like Test Mode wouldn't help me to know if disc can be burned without errors (in my case).

[test mode not supported for DVD+R?]

Thank you, blutach! So, there is no way to be sure that drive (in write mode) works correctly with controller, OS, etc., without burning a disk and possibly corrupting it?

[test mode not supported for DVD+R?]

Hello!

 

I was trying to run Test mode in ImgBurn before writing Verbatim DVD+R single layer disk. But ImgBurn declined with a message: "Test Mode is not supported by the current media (DVD+R)". Before this it was OK to run Test Mode for DVD-R disk. So, this inability to run Test Mode with DVD+R - is it inherent in ImgBurn? Or my drive - both drives (Pio-116 and ASUS-2014) - are guilty? Or my OS (Windows XP with SP3) is corrupted?

thank you, mmalves!

 

I'm not especially good with computers. Pioneer is IDE-drive. So, do i have to look for updated drivers for IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers or for SCSI and RAIS controllers (in my case it's Marvell 61xx RAID controller)? Actually, thru this forum i 've found the link to updates for asus/marvell drivers - but after installing new driver i've been still getting "buggy sense area" error.

 

About 12x speed - i'll tri it and post my results. But i'm a bit afraid of 12x being pretty high write speed considering data longevity. I've been told that the less write speed - the longer writter data will be safe and readable. What is your opinion about this?

 

One more thing - maybe the best way to deal with my problems is to format disc C and completely reinstall operating system and all necessary programs? I incline to this desicion 'cause both my drives worked pretty good at the beginning (about 300+ burned discs)...

hello to everybody!

 

first of all, forgive me my bad english - i'm not a native speaker and, alas, lazy learner

 

well, i have two drives on my PC, Pioneer-116D and ASUS-2014S1T. i use only Verbatim disks and i burn only DVD-5.

 

there was about four month of normal work with ImgBurn (2.4.2.0.). but now i get an error after error.

 

with Pioneer it's usually "buggy sense area detected".

 

with ASUS - you can choose. recently, ImgBurn completes burning process (but i see that at some point write speed have dropped to zero) but gives me an error during verifying. i take a look at DVD and i see that some area was kind of unburned or smth. next time i get me an error during burning - at 12% of process (usually all errors happens when about 12-15% of disk is burned). here i post some logs and images and i hope someone will help me - because this situation is killing me...

 

thanks to everybody!
