dunnuck

Hey this is dunnucks dad, one thing I think there are a lot of corrupted files on his system, in fact I know there is, he used my restore disk to get this thing up and running a long time ago and I have a different model gateway than he does. He then downloaded drivers for his gateway. to add to all this the harddrive has never been defraged, the reg has never been cleaned, in other words I think a restore would fix the problem, but I could be wrong. We have a game here which is on memorex disk, and it works fine, in fact everyone we know uses the memorex brand because the local best buy hasn't had the others in stock. I also hate to have shelled out 50 bucks for nothing, though I'm going to try and return them, I don't know how far I'll get. So what do you all think of cleaning up the system and then giving it a shot? Thanks for the fast replies.

seems i cant avoid getting those discs...i dont understand why it works for everyone else i know, but not me. i get an error on both imgburn and nero. idk,.

I would hate to go through all that trouble and for it not to work. There has to be another answer. More suggestions?

Everytime I try to burn a dual layer dvd, it stops part way through. I just got a brand new PIONEER DVD drive today. I tried Nero as well (that came with it) and the write still fails. I have gone through 7 of 25 discs. And im pissed. I dont know whats wrong. I am using memorex, and I know those usually work because my two friends use them for the same purpose. I have tried running the burn faster, slower, and nothing is working., I set the DMA or whatever it's called to open, and it still doesn't work. Idk what to do. The file is about 7.8gb. When it stops, a box pops up and states the following. I/O Error!
