Were you using one of those silly operating systems like Windows of OS X? Try Linux, there may be something that is preventing you from burning the image of a game (Microsoft probably doesn't care what reason you have for burning one of their games, and will stop you even if you have legitimate intents...which I'm guess you don't.)

Posted

They are still unreadable so your drive is producing low quality burns on the media you're using.

 

Try clearing the drives OPC history via the Advanced Settings feature (or in the eeprom tool)

 

Are your Verbatim discs made in Singapore? They seem more reliable than others made elsewhere - check the packaging, it should say around the barcode area somewhere.

Posted (edited)

ITs verbatim mkm003 singapore made. i clear my opc everytime.

 

i am using windows xp. I had one succesfull burn, after that, none of the 4 discs verified in imgburn.

 

I burn with 4x and Smartburn=ON ForceHyperTuning=ON OnlineHyperTuning=OFF OverSpeed=OFF

 

OPC was off.

 

 

ive tried so many settings that i cant remember! i tried SM on, FHT on and OHT on and OS off. and so on, please help me?

 

I get so bad results in kprobe to

Those settings worked fine for me in testing - you can check my results in the 'Drives' section (maybe you already did and that's where you got them from?)

 

You don't need to clear OPC every time when using them. I only cleared it before using them for the first time. After that, I didn't touch it.

 

Have you tried another spindle of discs?

I only had 10 verbatims, is there a possibility that its a bad spindle? I had one good burn thought.

 

Just look at my kprobe results:

You must have a bad spindle of discs.

 

You aren't even just getting a spike at the overburnt layer break position (as is the norm for most 'bad' burns), you're getting high error levels before, in and after the overburnt area.

 

When looking at my results (with the iHAS124 drive) you have to take into account that some of the tests may have been done without using anything beyond normal disc capacity (so no overburning as allowed by the 'max' firmware).

 

My Aone discs wouldn't overburn without failing to verify.

I realised that after i wrote my latest reply, sorry.

 

A friend borrowed me an Verbatim MKM003 disc and i got the uncorrectable error message when verifiying, shall i reflash the max burner fw? Or is the driver damaged?

Posted

Is your friend able to (over)burn their MKM003 without issues? Can they burn yours too?

 

I guess you could have a faulty drive (or at least one that can't overburn very well), yeah.

He doesn't not own any iHAS drive unfortunately, I just grabbed a disc from him to test.

 

 

Is there anything i can do to fix it or should I contact the supplier for exchange? What do I tell them? That the driver can't "overburn"?

Can you scan the disc you got from your friend and post the screenshot of the results please.

 

If it looks the same as the others you've posted, just say it's producing bad burns at the end of Verbatim MKM003 DL discs - and that you've tried 2 spindles.

 

It might be worth you loading the latest official firmware and burning one more with that (still at 4x) just to double check it's bad (post the scan screenshot of that too).

Haha this might sound akward but in the heat of the moment and frustation about losing so many discs I just cracked it and threw it away :P

 

I reverted the iHAS drive back to stock and flashed it again with "max" fw just to try again, I will come back with results. One odd thing is that my first burn when I opened the spindle and the first disc that was there burned succesfully and I got good Kprobe results (not very good but decent and the game was playable) after that I played with EEproom settings that I got the Uncorreable error, so I thought if I try to revert back to stock and reflash the fw I could have better luck? And I wont touch any settings in EEprom.

 

To many 'I' sorry for the grammar but I(:P) am really tired and frustrated

FINALLY! After many wasted discs and frustrating moments I finally found the solution, halleluja!

 

So here it goes:

 

What I did is that i flashed back my iHAS back to stock, and after that i reflashed "max fw" again. I never touched anything in EEprom or anything in any settings except that i ticked "Perform OPC before write" as stated in C4's guide. The image burned and verified 100% sucess in imgburn, now it was all down to Kprobe, was it going to pass or not. I did a test and when it came to 99% i was like "COME ON MOTHERFUCKER :P" and i saw this result

Its accepatable and within the range, it could get better but its my best result. Some large spikes but I think ill go with this one.

thx for all the help lightning_uk, much appreciated

That looks fine but you may find it gets worse again as you burn more discs (like mine did when I tested about 12 discs from a spindle). Keep an eye on it.

 

I most definitely will, I think the problem was that i messed with the EEpromm settings when I shouldn't. They were fine as they were "stock". After all my first burn was a success.

Posted

Is it normal that the drive make a sound when i put a CD in it? Without burning or anything just putting in the CD and letting it be for 2 mins and then the drive starts to make this noise http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WHYJPSE0

 

please listen, i really need to know if its a drive problem. Then i will contact the supplier for exchange. You can open the file with VLC.

 

I am asking because i made another burn and this is the result i got in Kprobe. I am sick of this.

Isn't that just the drive spinning a badly balanced disc?

 

Regarding the KProbe results, it's so much easier to look at the graph rather than read/interpret numbers. If you only provide one or the other, please provide the screenshot/graph.

 

I did say later burns might play up again. It took me 7 attempts from a spindle of 20 to get settings that produced consistent burns.

Posted (edited)

That disc i put in was an empty DVD+DL verbatim MKM003 disc. I put in another disc and still the same sound. Sometimes the sound comes up when it verifies the disc or is in the middle of burning process

 

I am sorry i didn't save the graph, is there a way to retrive it back again?

 

"I did say later burns might play up again. It took me 7 attempts from a spindle of 20 to get settings that produced consistent burns."

 

I read your guide here on team-xecuter forum http://team-xecuter.com/forums/showthread.php?t=74721

 

and I also saw your tests. My question is: Did you always have "stock" settings? Because when I got that great result (last page) I had everything stock, only smartburn on. I didn't clear OPC. Do you really need to clear OPC each time before you make a burn? Also is these settings recommended for "max" fw?

 

IMGBURN SETTINGS:

 

Layerbreak: Calculate optimal

OPC=OFF

 

EEPROM SETTINGS:

 

SB=ON

FHT=ON

OS=OFF

OHT=OFF

 

 

As stated in the xecuter guide. Because in one guide it's stated you must have OPC off and in this guide it says you need to turn OPC off. :blink:

 

Is it possible that the drive is not defect? If there is anyway to know if the drive is defect or not I would gladly like to test that.

The settings I used for each attempt can be seen in the logs.

 

The post you should be looking at is this one - http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=18871&view=findpost&p=136519

 

If it doesn't automatically jump to the right place, it's post #20 in the thread.

 

I started with default settings, had 3 total failures, cleared OPC history and then got a decent 4th. After that things got worse again and I started to mess with the settings.

Posted (edited)

Yes I saw that. So you did get better results when you turned off OPC and clear OPC history.

 

But I wonder why it performed better when i reflashed the fw? Do you think i'll have more luck trying those settings now? (SB=ON,FHT=ON,OS=OFF,OHT=OFF OPC off) I know it's most trial and error but sometimes you lose grip and get frustrated.

 

For me it was my first burn with default settings in EEprom showed decent results in Kprobe (verified in imgburn), after that I messed with the settings in EEprom I followed this guide http://www.xboy.se/guider/kprobe-guide (the settings is in the end of the site) and after that I got 5-6 bad burns and some of them didn't even verifiy in Imgburn(when I got bad results from that guide I tried the guide in xecuter forum that was advised from you still with no luck). I then reflashed the max fw and I did get my best results ever. Today I wanted to try to burn another game = back to square 1

 

Edit: Also what I saw from your test that you enabled FHT and after that you constantly got better result. Might be worth a shot. Also all of your success was with OPC turned off.

Edited by buklao
Posted

Reflashing resets the eeprom to default values. So it will have wiped out learnt media (opc stuff) and reset the settings (FHT/OHT/OS/SB).

 

They worked ok for me but only for the first burn. After that my results went downhill again.

 

You just have to be prepared to waste a spindle finding settings that work. As the drives are cheap, you might consider it an option just to get another one. Compare the two and use the best one.
