ZombiesAteMyWenis Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I'm running windows Vista x64 and had run imgburn flawlessly at least once. I think it may have updated and then royally screwed up the drivers for it. Now I view the drive as "ATA Device" in the device manager... the only way I fixed this last time was by doing a complete system restore and of course since it's the crappy hp setup... it deletes everything. Looks like I'll be reinstalling windows yet again. Maybe i'll find an older version of imgburn and see what happens. Oh, yes i've tried uninstalling the drive, it will keep coming back as "ATA Device" This drive is on an Hp Pavilion dv-1235dx
rasheed Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I think it may have updated and then royally screwed up the drivers for it. ImgBurn does not install any drivers, so it can not screw things up.
mmalves Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 And what's the problem in it showing as an ATA device? Are you getting burning errors or something? If so please post a log (look in ImgBurn's Help menu).
ZombiesAteMyWenis Posted June 14, 2009 Author Posted June 14, 2009 It appears that the problem was not exactly with Imgburn but any burn software. CloneCD ended up doing the same thing. I had burned a few DVDs and then the drive stopped functioning. Rebooted and then it gets displayed as "ATA Device" and asks for drivers that are nowhere to be found. I tried editing my upper/lower values in my system registry and that did not work. I ended up having to uninstall the device from device manager, turn off the computer, remove the drive, start computer without the drive in, then reboot again, and then the computer recognized the drive. If anyone has this error where your TSSTcorp l633l device becomes listed as "ATA Device", I recommend you physically remove and reinstall the device. Now I'm just wondering if fix will work indefinitely or if it will be temperamental.
