Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Hi and welcome to the forum, MrWalker! Have you tried another speed like 8x?
MrWalker Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 Hi and welcome to the forum, MrWalker! Have you tried another speed like 8x? No, sometimes when i did in the past id get buffer underun if computer was under load. But 4X has always worked before. I did update the firmware of the drive not so long ago. official from pioneer 1.28. can't tell any difference from DVR-212 and DVR-212D. but i checked before update and my drive was labeld as DVR-212 in IMGburn so I choosed that update.
mmalves Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Make sure you're using the latest drivers available for your motherboard's chipset, as 'invalid address for write' is usually collateral to some sort of write error (i.e. it follows another error that may not be being reported/detected).
spinningwheel Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 DMA activated Are you going by what Windo$e reports, or did you follow the steps in the FAQ?
MrWalker Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 Well ill check DMA again, something is skrewed. But i checked in Device managder. My MB is an asusM2n-e SLI and they state that it is an nforce 500 chipset. Nvidia doesnt carry nforce 500. only 520 570 590 etc, asus has no chipsetdrivers, think it using MS. I tried the one for nforce 570 as they all seemed alike. and now i get this: I 18:39:52 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!

cornholio7 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 follow the advice in the dma thread, delete the controllers and reboot, until you do that you can't rely on windows telling you that you have dma enabled
MrWalker Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 Well dont know what exactly happend even dissasmble the drive (my kid once put in a magnet in my former drive). but it actually seems to work know. Had those drivers before and will try install them again. And keep DMA in my mind. Hope it stays this way, thanx for help me on the way.
MrWalker Posted February 24, 2009 Author Posted February 24, 2009 Seems i was wrong. now it doesnt work again writing Slow. 8X seems to work and an old cd-rw work at 10X but not 4X It seems to me that the problem is the 1,28 firmware for the Pioneer dvr-212 I did downgrade to 1,24 and now it seem to work more stable. atleast for now
