I'm frustrated. I replaced my slow old CDR drive which used Adaptec software with a new Liteon 52X unit using Nero Burning Rom and I'm getting skipping in all my copies no matter the copy speed and whether or not I copy straight to the disc or download to my hard drive first. This is just very simple CD copying. The unit is installed as a slave to my original CDROM. I get the message that the copy is sucessful, but all the copies are bad. Thanks for any suggestions.
Could it be that the CD you're trying to backup is a protected one? Goes it all well with audio CDs or CDs you've already backupped, maybe? I don't know your CD, but you could try using ClonyXXL (http://www.afterdawn.com/software/cdr_software/cdr_tools/clonyxxl.cfm) to scan it (remember: even audio CDs can have a very boring protection, which is Cactus Data Shield; only with EAC you can backup them). Perform the scan and tell me. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Read forum rules! http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2487[/small]
Slow down your burn, change media and uninstall Roxio product! Try burnatonce (freebie) or Nero and be sure you don't have any ASPI layer conflicts. I like ASPI 4.6
I have slowed the burn to 4X, uninstalled Roxio using the Roxio tools and am using Nero--that leaves trying different media or giving up and installing a different unit.
Using ASPI layer 4.6? Using latest firmware for your Litey? Test with different brand media and different software to see if you encounter the same problem burnatonce: http://www.burnatonce.com/downloads/ The firmware page: http://forum.rpc1.org/portal.php Shoey
I think I need someone hipper than I am to check the driver conflicts I'll try some other media options Thanks
