My working burner is an LG "super-multi" GSA-4120B @ 2.4X
Burned Verbatim DVD+RL 8.5 GB with nothing but DVD Decrypter (Layer break and Bit settings changed)

Backed up my originals and it works better than before esp. Oblivion, no more DRE or lockups...can you believe that crap.....my drive is operates with less racket now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Very happy indeed.

Also flashed my Sammy with and OLD ASS Chaintech mobo with an Intel Chipset (didnt even have USB 2.0)and the PPA/Via 42XXL chipset sata card from Tiger. I used the MTKFLASHvia executable and it worked like a champ.

NO DRIVER UPDATING, NO RAID OR FANCY MOBO, NO EXTRA DRIVES, JUST A 3 1/2 FLOPPY ... FLASHED IT WITH SOME PLAIN OLD JUNK, EXCEPT FOR THE SATA CARD.

tHANKS to all the peeps who contribute to these boards, you know who you are.

oUt.

ASUS K8V SE Deluxe MOBO

BenQ DW1655 burner

RITEK Ridata DL media...works much better than reviews seem to think.

Another winning combination:

1) ASROCK P4V88+ - VIA VT8237 SATA controller (Flashed Sammy drive no prob)
2) Pioneer DVR-111D (Brand spanker - £28 from computer fair, Firmware updated to 1.19)
3) DataWrite DVD+R DL 8.5Gb - 2.4x

Burnt Quake 4, Oblivion, Far Cry, and GRAW, ALL work fine!

Cheers

I used a pci via 6421 card. 13 quid off ebay with updated drivers which I got from this forum

Used a NEC 2500A with updated firmware to allow DL and Bitsetting

I also used Mirror DL DVD+R that I got for 15 quid off ebay too

Can't believe it was this easy actually, all the info's here.

just a small warning for the people using Platinum

those uber suck.

2 of my games did not work in like 50% of the game.

1)Mobo: EVGA nforce 4 (dunno actual model name but it came with the EVGA 7800GT)
2) Burner = LG GSA-H10A stock firmware
3)Ritek 8.5gb DL

Worked great

DO NOT USE HP 630c FAILS AT 97%!!!!

I have been hoping to see someone using this burner as it is the same one I have. Are you using the 1.07 firmware?
Now I just have to get ahold of a xbox 360 with the TS drive : )

justin_k · « **Reply #57 on:** May 31, 2006, 11:38:00 PM »

burned first backup today =)

Mobo: MSI K8T-NEO (MS 6702) w/ VIA VT8237
Burner: Sony DRU-820a
Media: Verbatim 8x DVD+DL (burned @ 2.4x)

Flashed using Memorex 512MB USB FDD (highly recommend using one of these usb FDD's) Tried multiple burns with Fuji/Ritek media without success, thought I had a bad flash, everything seems fine with Verbatim media. Will do more testing this weekend =)

No I'm using the 1.08 firmware, the 1.07 didn't support bitsetting.
