wierd build error

[tuk]

Hi, normally I would put this down to a bad disk, but as the described problem happened 3 times in a row(identical)..maybe its something else

 

I dragged 8 ISO files into IB(build mode) with the intention to burn them all directly to a blank DVD..missing out the usual middle step of creating an ISO and then burning it..

 

The disk burnt ok,

When I checked in in 'My Computer' I could see the disk label when I right clicked on the disk(to explore) my PC froze and had to cut the power..

On reboot, windows refused to read the disk(no label this time) any attempt to access the disk..windows complained it was corrupt or unkown format(coaster after the fact?)

 

Maybe because the files were .iso..this confused the software somehow?

 

Any ideas?

 

Hmmn just noticed I can now access the disk albiet with 2-3 min freezes anytime I try to access any of the ISO files

do you have a copy of the log please?

 

each time i had to cut the power..so no log..Im now trying: create a ISO containing a RAR file of the 8 .iso files...then Il burn it using IB..an see if that makes any difference

choose test mode so you dont waste a disc

It might just be your A/V software scanning them or something!

 

Freezing the PC so that the only thing you can do is a hard reset seems a little harsh though.

Ok, that didnt work..i got the log before trying the disk and also checked sytem logs which shows about 20 incidents of the same cdrom error(see below)...

choose test mode so you dont waste a disc

Test mode wont help cos no errors are reported during burn its only when trying to access the burnt disk, that there are problems...the wierd thing is..I just tried burning an old tried and tested ISO file which worked fine...maybe its what Im burning thats the cause??????

[mmalves]

Can you use ImgBurn in Read mode and make an ISO of the DVD you're having problems with?

This way we'll see if there are indeed bad sectors.

Read mode failed on that disk(the one that the files can be viewed but not extracted)

 

 

please help..this is really starting to annoy

Forgetting ImgBurn for the moment, are you able to copy these files from the DVD to the HD using Explorer or something as they look like normal read errors to me. BTW, the latest firmware for your drive is v1.22 which can be found here:

[LIGHTNING UK!]

You might like to stop using the newer 16x media and stick with 8x stuff if that's all the drive can do - it is getting a bit old now!

 

Of course you could also upgrade to a newer drive - i.e. the 112 - and that would fix your problems.
