I think that the "Optimum Power Calibration Failed" is caused by shit disks but u have MCC which r A+++ try and burn at 4X rather then MAX and c if that changes anything

Is the drive new ?

 

Did it come with SB03 firmware or have you updated firmware ?

 

If you updated firmware where did you get the firmware update from ? [edit forget about this bit as samsung odd have that firmware, Rpc1 still show SB02 for L version but SB03 for A version]

 

 

Check out the FAQ about DMA issues as well maybe set master on a new 80 wire IDE cable.

 

You could also untick Perform OPC Before Write in settings under write tab

Your log clearly shows the burner with the 'D:' drive letter.

here is a snap shot

Then you must have done something to make windows change the letters (uninstalled the IDE controller perhaps?) because if that pic is newer than the logs, your burner is now E:.

maybe your card reader is dodgy

[juandan]

I think the problem started when I was trying open an powerISO file I didn't no what I was doing so I clicked on mount and had the image mount in the f drive I could view all the powerISO files from there, I unmounted it so there's nothing in f drive now, but the dvd-rw still has the letter E and dvd-rom has D does it make any difference what letter it has?

[LIGHTNING UK!]

Nope, none at all.

 

Just so long as you know which is which when looking in Explorer / My Computer.

 

Have you actually turned off the 'Perform OPC Before Write' option in the settings now as suggest earlier?
