I think rather than having only what setup you got you should also include ALL configurations. People are having problems with identical parts is because their configuration is differnt. I know first hand because i was having tons of problems so I will be the first to share my configuration.
First the parts:
SH-D162C w/ kreon v.81
Pioneer DVR-111D
Programs I used XBC, and the iso builder method
Mobo: Gigabyte DS3 board, with only 1 IDE (very important)
Second is the configuration:
Initally what I did was use my Pioneer Burner and Hard DRive on the IDE cable. HD being master and Burner being slave. That burned games fine. No errors.
After, i decided to install my Sh-D162c drive in my pc so I took off the HD, put in a sata drive instead and put the samsung dvd rom as the IDE Master. -ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE AND MADE 5 COASTERS AFTER VARIOUS TESTS-
So what happened then,
I left the pioneer drive on the IDE cable, made the samsung SH-d162c as an external DVD ROM with an adapter and everything was okay again.
So in conclusion, if you are experiencing problems, my solution was this, the DVD-ROM and DVD writer has to have it's own IDE cable or connection, they cannot share one. or else you will get errors out the @$$.
This may not fix all the problems but should certain help some people.
