HappyNot Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 After 100s of burns (same brand DVD) with no problems, my last three burns have suddenly all failed at the verification stage. (The only remotely possible change I can think of is that I have very recently burned a DL for the first time). When I then close ImgBurn and open/close the DVD tray, the DVDs work fine and a file comparison informs me all files are identical So, 1. How do I solve this 2. Is there any reason to worry about those 3 DVDs? Thanks. Log: I 03:56:13 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!

LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 DMA errors are usually related to bad cables. Unplug, replug (replace if you can) and then try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyNot Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Thanks for your answer. Now that you mention it, in the past three months my drive "disappeared" a couple of times, which I remedied by unplugging and replugging them. (I'll note that my latest burn attempts have failed in the burning phase, hanging my computer.) 1. What are the odds that the problem is with the cables instead of the drive or computer connections? (Yes, obviously it's worth trying the cables first regardless.) 2. Which cable is more likely at fault? (data/power) 3. Given your diagnosis and the fact that the disks passed a CRC file-comparison, can I be reasonably confident that the disks are fine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyNot Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 I replaced the SATA cable and have since burned several DVDs with no problems. Solely for the benefit of future searchers, here is some of the text from the above pop-up message: I/O Error! ScsiStatus: 0x02 Interpretation: Check Condition SK Interpretation: Hardware Error ASC/ASCQ Interpretation: Logical Unit Communication CRC Error (ULTRA-DMA/32) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Glad that appears to have solved the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
