montgomery Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I just tried burning my first project and everything was going great until about 58% of the way through the burning process and then it just stopped writing and it gave me a writing error.

chewy Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_result.php?kaj=1&isces rather old burner with a bad reputation your firmware is not seeing the burn speeds for those ritek's, you would need to update it to 0060 those ritek's are bad also I would get a new dvd burner and some verbatim or Taiyo Yuden disks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I 16:50:01 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: RITEKG05) (Speeds: 1x, 2x) One of the worst blanks on the market. Killed Ritek's reputation. As usual, get Taiyo Yuden or Verbatims and you'll be right. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montgomery Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1727 0060 I had already downloaded that particular firmware and then I tried to burn the disk and the previous log was the result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I personally think now would be a good time to get a new drive. I 16:55:45 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: MCC 03RG20) (Speeds: 1x, 2x) Anything that says it can only write to premium 16x speed media at speeds of 1x and 2x is really not worth bothering with.
