I went into the advanced settings and changed the book type to dvd+r dl and got this far. then it quit. I was able to do it with both the 2.4 and 8 disc. any more ideas the previous log I posted was from teh 2.4 disk. I will say it is a Sony disc but it clearly states it is a mkm-001 this log is with the 8x disc I 21:15:22 Operation Started!

if I change bios settings what should I be setting them to? Or better yet how do I know if I need to change them? Checked the DMA settings and it looks like everything is set to DMA. What in the world am I doig wrong. SHould it really be this hard to do.

I found this site through mrbass.org that site has soemthing about fat32 and 4g and needing it to be ntfs. does taht have anything to do with what I am encountering

I have absolutely no idea what that means. It is not an external drive so power is through the tower. I am trying to figure the DMA crap now but not sure where or how. I am in device manager but I don't see anything taht relates to DMA.

Ok so now I have a mkm-001 disc and this is what I got now. Looks like the same thing as before. Like I said I have checked the firmware and it is up to date. SO any other ideas or direction that can be given Just so you know I have also tried using record now adn all I get from it is insert a blank disc. Only reason I was using it is because it is the program that came with the burner. I 20:02:06 ImgBurn Version 2.3.2.0 started!

I am in the US

ok so reading through what I have been able to find on here does MKM=Verbatim? Or is that very over generalized? If I stick with Verbatim discs from a big box store and it is 2.4x and DL disc I should be ok? I am not a techie type person. I jsut keep asking questions and messing with stuff until it eventually works or I just give up. Like I told my wife it is not even the file being burned at this piont it is jsut getting it to work period.

Ok that is one jumbled mess. I am assuming you are trying to inform me the disc I am using is not supported by the drive.

I was hoping you wouldnt say that. I havent even used it that much so you really think that is the only option. I would rather not buy a new one considering how little I do and will use it. if that is the case I will just compress it and burn it to a single layer disc

so are the discs not backward compatible. If the burner will only run at 2.4 do you ahve to use a disc that is only 2.4 compatible. I know when using it to burn cd's that is the case. I ahve used the burner for single layer dvd's with no problem in the past. If that is the case then I may give it a shot. JUst hate that I spent money on these and they wont work.

SO I am new to this also. I ahve read all the stuff I can and think I am doing it right. I have read everything here regarding medai and am using Verbatim dvd+r dl up to 8x speed. I have tried with DVD Decrypter and got the same errors. I dont know if it is me the media or the burner. hoping I cna get some help. I tried searching the forum but could never find anything that matched. I have checked my firmeware with the manufacutrer and it is all up to date according to their site.
