ok i originally had a NEC 3500A drive and it was working fine using Imgburn and CloneCD, but unfortunately the disks wouldnt work in my drive.

so i went and got a Pioneer drive today, when i try to burn the same image (that worked fine on the NEC) it just seems to stop after random %, 2% 17% and 59%.

so thats 3 coasters so far.

does anyone have any advice? im using Verb 2.4x disks.

could it be a dodgy drive?

is the ide channel your dvd drive is on set to DMA if available?

using 1.23 dangerous bros firmware?

nero infotool says DMA is on.

firmware is 1.23 out of the box firmware, havent flashed anything yet....should i?

FORGOT TO MENTION: my pioneer is on secondary IDE as slave...does this matter?

set it as primary master and you should eliminate some problems.

so i set it as primary master and still getting problems!!!

grrr this is so annoying, when i got this new pioneer i thought it would be the end of problems!

can anyone suggest anything else before i take it back to the shop.

thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

i did the flash last night the tdb firmware, i even reinstalled windows...

still seems to crash out while burning, seems to be burning fine then the write speed just drops to 0x and i cant even abort the write.

grrr

could it be something wrong with my ide cables or something?

I managed to burn a CDR fine.

ive just read somewhere i might need a 80 conductor IDE cable, could this be my problem?

and do i need to update my mobo or anything to use this drive?

koe_182 · « **Reply #8 on:** October 26, 2006, 02:58:00 PM »

ok i discovered that swapping the cable means that they will now burn properly but i seem to be getting
unreadable disk errors...

im using Pioneer 111D, Verb disks on a flashed Hitachi drive....

grr this is hardwork...and expensive...

i did my last burn using imgburn, just trying one on clone now see if that helps.

could i be doing anything else wrong?

ive got other verb disks that work fine (someone else made them for me)

I've been having the same problem. Try using xbox backup creator v2.3 to burn and reboot before you do. This seems to help me cos i can't use clone or imgburn. I've managed to make 5 successful backups so far

When i set my friends up for him i put the 111D on primary master and his other drive on secondary or cable select.

xbox backup creator v2.3 to rip and burn and he havent got a coaster yet!!!

Will a pioneer 108 work?

jeps1lon · « **Reply #12 on:** November 03, 2006, 11:14:00 AM »

if you're still having problems, try disabling dma and using pio, and don't do anything while burning

jabroniekilla · « **Reply #13 on:** November 03, 2006, 11:24:00 AM »

after burning correctly and they still dont work, are you sure you are creating the image correctly?
