marco93 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hi, anyone knows about this dvds : TDK DVD+RW 8x ? I cannot write on it, I tried many programs, could format it sometimes but I get some errors at writing, erasing, formatting or after at reading. And it accepts only speed 2.4x instead of 8x. For example this error at writing (popup window) : Synchronise Cache Failed ! Device [0:0:0] ... Reason : Write Error Here is the log : I 11:58:59 ImgBurn Version 2.3.0.0 started!

polopony Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 its not the media that accepts 2.4x its your drives firmware that only supports that speed .Look for newer firmware and some different discs your drive doesn't like them very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marco93 Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 okay guys, thank you. The pbm is that I already updated the firmware : HP13 (my pc is a HP Pavilion). So I guess there's no other way than getting others discs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
