daisy Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 I was burning a DVD using DVD decrypter and got an error (sorry didn't copy what it was). I inserted a fresh disc and got the message "disc not empty." I tried a few more, same error. Thought it the program. I then downloaded ImgBurn and it too says the same thing. I am on the last 10 of a 100 pack so I can't imagine it is the discs. I did try another type. When I look at the disc properties it says that the space is used. Any ideas? Maybe this will help: HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4082N CC15 (ATA) Current Profile: None!

polopony Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Daisy the bad news is DVD Decrypter was discontinued for legal reasons namely its ability to bypass copyright protection and is not supported here at IMGburn Forum .You make no mention of what discs you're using so we can't even rule out crap media .IB automatically saves the logs, HELP-->IMGburn logs,you could also copy and paste the info from the IB window looks like this .The more info you can provide the better chance for a solution.Even though you had success with the first 90 discs the last ones could be faulty ,more info please SONY DVD RW DRU-510A 1.1a (ATA) Current Profile: DVD-R Disc Information: Status: Empty Erasable: No Free Sectors: 2,298,496 Free Space: 4,707,319,808 bytes Free Time: 510:48:46 (MM:SS:FF) Supported Write Speeds: 1x, 2x, 4x Pre-recorded Information: Manufacturer ID: MCC 03RG20 Recording Management Area Information: SONY 0000000 SONY DRU-510A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polopony Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 seeing how it does't read that info with any of the medias I'd suspect that the drive might be faulty.Those memorex discs are pretty subpar one uses Ritek dye and the other CMC MAG but The Verbs are top of the line and the drive wont read those either .What computer is the burner in an HP? and is it still under warranty?

daisy Posted March 11, 2007 Author Share Posted March 11, 2007 It is an HP and such a piece of !X:"}. It needs a reimaging but I was worried about losing my DVDdecrypter and Shrink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Not that it'll probably work, but it's worth following the DMA post in the FAQ and uninstalling your IDE controller + rebooting. That can clear out some things that cause corruption. After that you need to look at filter drivers and see if any of those could be corrupting the data on its route from drive -> software. Of course you could install the drive in a different PC and see if it still has the same problem, then you'd know for sure if the drive itself is faulty.
