joemilliondollarman Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hi there, I've been looking around on this and other forums for help with my current problem, not finding an answer I hope somebody can help me here as I'm racking my brain and still can't figure out what is wrong/where the error lies.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 So 8x does the same? I have no faith at all in slimline drives. Try cleaning it with a cleaning disc, that may help. If it doesn't, try the 16x discs or get yourself another drive (external, 'normal' size). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
