burn error: buggy sense area

[markoslo]

Hi,

 

I tried to burn a xbox 360 game to an Verbatim dvd+r dl, and after like 15-20% I got the "buggy sense area" error. Google didn't find anything on this error, so could anyone tell me what this error mean?

It's probably because you've got an optical drive on a controller that's set up for RAID - optical drives don't like that.

 

What type of controller is it? NVIDIA, Intel?

I think its't an intel controller (http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=Bxda...&templete=2)

 

I tried to run that flash program, but it always says flash failed, I also tried flash it in safe mode.

Try connecting the drive to either port 5 or 6 (possibly 4 or 5 if they number them from 0!)

 

Oh and make sure it's not on the Silicon Image controller - just incase that one is a bit picky.

 

You might also like to install the latest Intel Matrix driver from here - http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/

You mean sata port 5 or 6? I is a pata drive, not sata.

Oops, my bad

 

So basically you have the drive on a marvell IDE controller... good luck with that!

 

Get yourself a silicon image 680 pci ide controller card or ditch the drive and buy an sata one.

 

Of course if you're lucky enough to find a newer driver for the marvell controller that might fix it too. Don't forget to update your motherboard bios and hunt around inside it for an option to run the controller in legacy/ide/ata mode.

 

EDIT:

 

IF you haven't already, try the top driver from the SATA section on this page:
