Write Speed Miscompare

[Omega Recrium]

Hey everyone,

 

I was burning a backup of my Borderlands game, first time burning a backup. I selected 2.4x for the burn speed, but for some reason it still burnt around 4x the whole time, which is what I believe is responsible for the freeze every 5-10 minutes in its game play?

 

The error message given was:

 

W 22:45:10 Write Speed Miscompare! - Wanted: 3,324 KB/s (2.4x), Got: 5,540 KB/s (4x)

 

Any idea what could have caused this? And how to stop it from happening again?

 

Thanks,

Omega

Hi and welcome to the forum, Omega Recrium!

 

The lowest possible speed with your combination of drive and media is 4x.

The most likely cause of the freeze is the quality of the media you're using. You could try burning at 6x or 8x to see how it turns out but you'd have better results with Verbatim blanks.

Thanks for the quick replies guys.

Would this produce the same quality of game as 2.4x? So then the freezing is only because I tried to burn at too low of a speed?

 

 

@mmalves...

 

Could be that too, at this rate this pack of CDs will be wasted by tomorrow anyways, I'll try that brand next time
