muzzer2uk Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 This is a brand new drive and it seems to only do this when i burn at faster speeds, when i burn at slower speeds it works fine. The DVD-RW drive will lose power forcing me to restart the computer to get power back to the DVD-RW. Any insights into this problem are appreciated. I 12:34:37 ImgBurn Version 2.5.7.0 started!

LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 What error do you get when it loses power? It sounds like a hardware problem to me. Either the drive itself or your power supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzzer2uk Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) I can test burn a cd and see what the log comes up with if you want? Edited July 15, 2012 by muzzer2uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 You can find a shorcut to the previous burn logs in ImgBurn's Help menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Have you tried unplugging the drive and plugging it back in again? Maybe replace the SATA cable? What controller is the drive attached to? Right click the drive selection box in ImgBurn and pick 'Family Tree'. Close the prompt and then copy + paste the info from the log window.

muzzer2uk Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 Yes i have tried unplugging and plugging it back in again, i will swap over the SATA cable and see if thats the issue.

dbminter Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 How old is the drive? My last Optiarc I had needed replacing after 6 months. It developed a problem that when the tray was ejected, every time the tray was vibrated, like, say, removing a disc that had just been ejected after a burn, the tray would reload! I swapped in another drive in its place and the problem went away because the problem's with Sony. Yeah, I'm on another Sony rant, but, it's only because Sony used to make a good product up until about 5 years ago. My previous Optiarc before that had to be replaced after only a year itself! I stopped getting Optiarcs and switched to Lite-Ons. Lite-Ons are a little slower in writes but, I'd rather not have to open up the PC case every half a year and swap in a new Optiarc than get the slightly faster write speeds of the Optiarc.

muzzer2uk Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) It's a brand new drive as in a month or so old.I have only burned about 20 DVDs if that. Edited July 16, 2012 by muzzer2uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Hence my comments on Sony quality. I got a Sony BD-RE that I had to return to the store in under a week and a half and less than 5 total writes because it stopped writing! It failed to fully format/erase after an hour crapping out in ImgBurn. It had also developed a crack at the center ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
