I/O Error! Interpretation: Check Condition

[LordMoe]

Hey guys. So I have an Asus DRW-24BST drive. I tried to burn an iso I have onto a blank DVD. It got up to 94% when I got this error message

 

 

My log reads as (starring out names):

For the record, I am using maxell DVD+R discs. Haven't tried with Verbatim discs so maybe I just need better discs. But just in case, I thought I'd make a topic in case it's another problem. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

AnyDVD must be disabled

 

W 12:45:21 AnyDVD can interfere with ImgBurn's ability to verify accurately, please ensure it's disabled!

[LordMoe]

I did that and I still get the same error. Actually if it were that simple I might have had to break something...

[Adrianvdh]

Did you fiscally close the program in task manager? and try writing at 4x speed not 6x speed!

Edited October 6, 2012 by Adrianvdh

[LordMoe]

my drive can't write at 4x, so it automatically does to 6x

[LordMoe]

I tried shutting down AnyDVD, I still get the same error

 

when I try to play the DVDs, they seemingly work...but I am not exactly positive about it since I got those error messages

[Adrianvdh]

Try diabling Smart Burn

[LIGHTNING UK!]

No, don't disable smartburn, just buy some better discs.

 

If you haven't already done so, try burning at 8x too.

[Adrianvdh]

Oh Sorry

 

[LordMoe]

just curious, what would make burning at 8x better than 6x

just curious, what would make burning at 8x better than 6x

 

Some media performs better when burned at faster speeds. A lot of people assume that slowest = best in all cases, but it really depends on the combination of burner, firmware on the burner, and the media you're using. If slowest really was best, than 1X wouldn't be locked out in the write strategy and it almost always is.

 

With early burners, there was no buffer underrun protection, PCs had a much weaker spec than they have now, and the drives, media and burning software were not as advanced, so often if you didn't burn as slow as possible the burn would fail. The "always burn as slow as possible" thing comes from that era, even though it is no longer relevant advice.
