REDRZA Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Hello, could use some help. I am getting an I/O error that reads: Interpretation: Power calibration area error If i restart my CPU, for some reason i have no problem burning. If i use the program once, i get this error message, then need to restart PC again. Any idea's whats causing this? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmalves Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 A firmware update could improve support for the media you're using, but since there are no firmware updates you'll need to use different media or get an external burner that can burn your blanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmalves Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 The newer internal models by Pioneer and Optiarc seem very good. You could get one of those and put it in an external enclosure of your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
