Device not ready (meduim not present)


Mich_v_g

Recommended Posts

Ok, been searching for hours looking for the answer, nearly in tears with frustration.

 

I have burned many discs wiht imgburn (love it) but now i have a serious issue. I put in the blank disc, burn the iso no problem, i have a slot drive that i have to manually push back in the disc before verifying so i do that every time. Now comes the problem.... It won't acknowledge that the disc is there! no matter how many times i take it out and put it in again. Even if i cancell the process and go directly to verify it won't acknowlege the disc is there. It just says "device not ready (medium not present)".

 

So my question is why does it read the blanks and not the burned?

 

It just sticks at "waiting for device to become ready". Everything else in the log is normal.

 

Please help.

Okay. So there is the log. As far as I can see everything during the burn went fine. It is just when it is time to verify that it won't read the disc. After a while of "device not ready (medium not present)" i get frustrated and cancel the verify stage. The discs still play though.

 

One other question.... seems my computer really is throwing a temper tantrum.... why do i get "waiting for buffers to recover"?

 

see this log (totally different day, but it also just did it again)

Forgot to add one thing... When i open imgburn lately and go into "write image to disc", i select the file to burn, but it takes a good 30 - 45 seconds for it to show up where it says source. While it is frozen like this i can't do any thing but wait?

DMA issues are probably to blame for the buffer issues and slow loading of the 'Source' image. Read the FAQ.

 

As for the drive not being able to initialise the disc after it's burnt it... have you tried with some decent media? Try Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden discs instead. Burn at 8x.

I can't seem to find the dma info in the FAQ. But I googled it and found this http://forum.lgsoftwareinnovations.com/showthread.php?t=12650 is that right??

 

Does it really matter if i verify the disc? I burn at 5x, but it usually only gets 4x. Why the higher speed if i get different discs? I've been useing the same discs for the past 6 months at least. The computer is only a year old, if that.

Are you saying you're unable to find the 'controller' entries to remove in order to reset DMA?

 

You get a screenshot by pressing the 'print screen' key on your keyboard. Then 'paste' into something like Paint. (or use a proper program like snagit to get your screenshots)

 

Alt + print screen will allow you to just capture the active window.

sigh... well that doesn't seem to be working? Perhapy my print screen key isn't active or something.

 

Anyway... I'll describe what i see in the device manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers

IDE Channel

IDE Channel

IDE Channel

IDE Channel

Intel® ICH9M/M-E Family 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller - 2929

Rocoh Memory Stick Controller

Ricoh SD/MMC Host Controller

Ricoh xD-Picture Card Controller

 

 

That is what i see. I'm running Vista (icky!!!) On your FAQ page there is a little icon that gets pointed to, and I dont see that. I have icons for back, forward, show/hide console tree, properties, help, sohw/hide action pane, scan for hardware changes, update driver software, uninstall. These are all buttons at the top of the screen.

 

When i click on the first IDE Channel that is listed, and go to Advanced settings i see Supported devises 1 and then under devices "target id: 0, device type: ATA Disk, Current mode: PIO mode 4"

 

There is an area that says device properties, and shows and unchecked box that says "enable DMA" but this is gray and doesn't give me the option to click it.

 

Any other way to click that ?

Okay i've done that, and it looks like to took away all four IDE channels and just left me with the rest? Correctly done?

 

I'm burning a disc right now to see what happens. usually after i reboot i can get one disc no problem but the second is when it starts to fight me! fingers crossed though that it works now. You guys are the bestest!

I think i'll just smile, knodd and say thanks.... cuz i have no idea what that all means. So far, still working.

 

Might you have any idea what makes vista so hidiously slow? On occasion it takes a good 10 - 20 seconds to respond to me clicking anything?

4x is the speed it burns. burning from an iso.

 

I don't believe i'm doing anything else while burning. If i am, it's not knowingly. Is there a way to find out what exactly is running on that drive at the time?

 

I have xoftspy and connected to a wireless network. Shall I close both of these? Would that help?
