Benny Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) I am recording Taiyo Yuden DVD-R's on a Lite-on DVDRW in WIN XP. I am recording at 8x speed and selecting Verify. 9 times out of 10 everything works great but occaisionally I get an error message when the IMGBurn program tries to cycle the tray. It says "Synchronise Cache Failed Write Error" and asks for "abort or retry". I click "retry" and it continues to verify and the DVD's seem OK . I have seen this on the last few versions of the software but never on the software before March or so. I am running the current version now. Thanks Edited May 18, 2007 by Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 You really need to be posting logs when you ask questions/mention problems like this. Without the log there's far too much guessing involved. A 'write error' is exactly what it says - the drive was unable to complete a 'write' operation on the media. There's nothing software can do about that. Look for a firmware update for the drive and consider investing in a cleaning disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 That drive might be new to you but it's not new in the world of optical drives! There have been 2 firmware releases since the one you're on - HS07. Try updating it to HS0E http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2191 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
