hey when i started backing up my dvd i used clonedvd and anydvd, until i got to a few movies and they wouldnt work, and i tried them a few times but still didnt work...so thats when i switched to using dvd x copy, it worked great for a while until now when i burn it doesnt work. i have no idea why tho. so then i decided to use dvd shrink. so i do full backup and compress it and then i burnt with dvd shrink and wheni ts dont it says it didnt work. could it be not working cuz i am burning with dvd shrink, you think it would work if i burn it with nero?
That might happen if you use cheap media.When you say that it works some times and then it doesn't.Is that on the PC dvd drive or on a Standalone player? Try updating firmware, and get all the M$ patches. IF you have the drive set to DMA try switching to PIO mode. Hopes that helps
i have been using memorex dvds the whole time and they have been working. its on a stand alone dvd player and my dvd rom drive. also whats ate the DMA and PIO mode??? and where do i change them?
The transfer of data to and from an IDE hard disk, or from a CD-ROM: http://www.veritest.com/bi/cont1998/199807/piodma.asp?visitor= Well go into device manager ->then "IDE ATA\ATAPI controllers" -> Secondary IDE channel -> Properties -> Advanced Settings. then change transfer mode to PIO only on Device 0 & 1 How much do you pay for ur dvd's 25,50,100 pack? I only used Memorex once for my dvds and then I switched to Ritek media _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Intel D875PBZ - P4 w/HT 3.0GHz 800MHz FSB 512KB Cache - 2GB DDR PC3200 - 760GBs [1x500GB - 1x160GB -1 x60GB +x40GB] - GeForce FX 5700 Ultra 128MB - Sony Dru-510a[/small]
what type of drive is it? + or - ppl say that cheap media doesnt work right but i think thats only in -r i think dvd+r uses a better dye or something cause i use cheap $.80 KHyperMedia +r and they always work- if you have an older burner you might need a firmware update- just search on yahoo.
what u mean move the data? and i think the burner is my primary drive not second. and for dvd's i have + and - , i have packs of 10 and one of 50 almost gone...if that mattters? and i have a dual format memorex burner(so memorex media should work) and there is no firmwire update cuz the burner is rather new _X_X_X_X_X_[small]AMD athlon 64 3200+ 512 mb ram 120 gig hdd Memorex dual x format ps2 v10...with m2[/small]
