mapleawesome12 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I need help with this. I'm trying to burn an ISO onto a Maxell DVD-R using a Lite-On DVD+RW SOHW-1693S external USB drive. Whenever I place the disc in, it reads on the PC itself, but the ImgBurn fails to scan it and reads as Medium Not Present. No luck with 2.5, and I've done a ton of things. I've installed ASPI to my main DVD-ROM drive (which I learned only burned CD-R) and I plugged this USB drive thinking it would work, but no luck. There's not much on the log, but here it is anyway. I 20:49:41 ImgBurn Version 2.4.3.0 started!I 20:49:41 Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 3) I 20:49:41 Total Physical Memory: 522,236 KB - Available: 150,088 KB I 20:49:41 Initialising SPTI... I 20:49:41 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 20:49:42 Found 1 DVD-ROM, 1 DVD±RW and 1 BD-ROM/HD DVD-ROM! W 21:09:57 I/O Interface has been changed! I 21:09:57 Shutting down SPTI... I 21:09:57 Initialising ASPI... I 21:09:57 WNASPI32.DLL - Adaptec's ASPI Layer - ASPI for Win32 (95/NT) DLL - Version 4.7.0.0 I 21:09:57 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 21:09:58 Found 1 DVD-ROM and 1 BD-ROM/HD DVD-ROM! W 21:10:05 I/O Interface has been changed! I 21:10:05 Shutting down ASPI... I 21:10:05 Initialising ASAPI... E 21:10:05 Unable to initialise ASAPI! - ASAPI.DLL E 21:10:05 Reason: The specified module could not be found. E 21:10:05 You need to install an ASAPI manager. E 21:10:05 Visit http://www.imgburn.com to download one. E 21:10:05 Alternatively, try changing the 'I/O Interface' in the Settings to a different one. Quick note, the Lite-On is read as SPTI, and the BD-ROM/HD DVD-ROM is actually a virtual ISO mounter from DAEMON Tools. Any fixes to my Medium Not Present situation would be great. Thanks.

Cynthia Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Hi and welcome to the forum, mapleawesome12! Switch back to SPTI. If you switch to read mode in ImgBurn - can you post the disc info of the right side of the program window? (if you can load the disc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleawesome12 Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 I always have it set on SPTI, since the drive won't read on any other settings. The disc is still commiting a Medium Not Present in the Read mode. Here's an image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Why would you use a version that's known to be buggy? Put 2.5.0.0 back on. If the drive won't recognise the disc you're putting in it then it probably doesn't support it. Try some other discs (originals and ones you've already burnt, both CD and DVD). Do any of those work? If not, your drive has probably broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleawesome12 Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 Coincidentally, 2.5 also didn't work and my drive wouldn't work when i was running Vista (as per a lot of other things that wouldn't work due to Vista) Anyway, I've tested a SONY CD-R which worked perfectly and did complete playback (Sweet tunes BTW) And unfortunately my Sony DVD-R of Powerpuff Girls Z (don't ask) won't work. I think the reader has lost detection of DVD. No Auto-Play, nothing in the Drive through My Computer. This isn't right.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 It sounds like your drive has broken, get yourself a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
