DVD will not burn

[markymarky]

Hi

I'm having problem with my DVD burner. It burns CDs and plays them fine. I can play DVDs however when I come to durn any thing the green light on the dvd just keeps flashing and nothing happens. If trying to use Nero the Burn button does not light when I have added items to burn.

Also when I put a DVD in it seems to take ages to warm up and the green flashing light to stop.

I'm using XP. Any ideas.

Thanks

Hi

Not claiming to be able to solve the problem but.....

First things to check -

How did you connect your writer? Is it on the same band as another drive? Is it set right as slave or master? How do you see the drive in windows, under my computer? i.e. what does it say next to the drive? You can check in BIOS to see exactly how the system sees it. That could be a good indication.

If everything is set properly and you still having the problem, try updating your ASPI configuration - http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/sup...aspi_471a2.exe
