I backed up important files on DVD using Nero before erasing drive. All disks read fine but this one. All files are visible, but I can't copy or open any of the files. It would be great if there were a way to recover the files from this dvd. Thanks for your help. barak8250 1C82-80XE-09E5-4664-405E-93E6-**** 4C85-2017-4045-0001-0009-7640-0800-1400-0000-4049-233C-**** (*) Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=169792 bytes, created 3/26/2007 11:42:30 AM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.5.13.0 Internal Version: 7, 5, 13, 0 (Nero Express) Recorder: < Image Recorder> Version: Not available - HA -1 TA 0 - 7.5.13.0 Adapter driver: <Virtual Device> HA -1 Drive buffer : CD-ROM: <MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-850S >Version: 1.21 - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.5.13.0 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : HTS721010G9SA00 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-850S atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : NERO IMAGEDRIVE2 2.26 imagedrv Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-850S D: CDRom0 NERO IMAGEDRIVE2 E: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 83886080 (0) Byte BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 2047MB (2096364kB) Free physical memory: 1209MB (1238760kB) Memory in use : 40 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 19.9.2007 DVD-Copy on the fly 9:26:11 PM #1 Text 0 File SCSIPTICommands.cpp, Line 411 LockMCN - completed sucessfully for IOCTL_STORAGE_MCN_CONTROL 9:26:11 PM #2 Text 0 File SCSIPTICommands.cpp, Line 209 SPTILockVolume - completed successfully for FCTL_LOCK_VOLUME 9:26:11 PM #3 Text 0 File DVDCopy.cpp, Line 319 DVD Track-Information from source disc: Media Type: DVD+R S01 T01 Con 0x14 Start 0 Len 1797968 NWA -1 (gap 0) Blank 0 Res 1 Dmg 0 Open Trk 0 Mode TRM_DATA_MODE1 (0) 9:26:11 PM #4 Text 0 File DVDCopy.cpp, Line 434 Max -1 tracks of 1 allowed to copy 1: 0 - 1797968 = 1797968, TRM_DATA_MODE1, block size 2048, read opt 0 (no read options) 9:26:11 PM #5 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3467 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 9:26:12 PM #6 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 306 Last possible write address on media: 4718591 (1048:34.41, 9215MB) Last address to be written: 1797967 (399:32.67, 3511MB) 9:26:12 PM #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 318 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 9:26:12 PM #8 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 490 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 9:26:12 PM #9 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 792 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (1 - Data (mode 1)) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 1797968 (1797968) = #1797968/399:32.68 not relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/not required -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 1797968 blocks [Image Recorder] -------------------------------------------------------------- 9:26:21 PM #10 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 995 Prepare [Image Recorder] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x40; Session Closed, disc not fixated Tracks 1 to 1: Idx 0 Idx 1 Next Trk 1: TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048/0x00, FilePos 0 0 3682238464, ISRC "" DAO layout: =========== ___Start_|____Track_|_Idx_|_CtrlAdr_|_____Size_|______NWA_|_RecDep__________ 0 | lead-in | 0 | 0x41 | 0 | 0 | 0x00 0 | 1 | 0 | 0x41 | 1797968 | 1797968 | 0x00 0 | 1 | 1 | 0x41 | 1797968 | 1797968 | 0x00 1797968 | lead-out | 1 | 0x41 | 0 | 0 | 0x00 9:26:21 PM #11 Phase 65 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1760 Burn process started 9:26:21 PM #12 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 2712 Verifying disc position of item 0 (not relocatable, no disc pos, no patch infos, orig at #0): write at #0 9:42:20 PM #13 SPTI -1040 File SCSIPassThrough.cpp, Line 179 CdRom0: SCSIStatus(x02) WinError(0) NeroError(-1040) Sense Key: 0x03 (KEY_MEDIUM_ERROR) Sense Code: 0x10 Sense Qual: 0x00 CDB Data: 0x28 00 00 1B 6B 60 00 00 20 00 00 00 Sense Area: 0xF0 00 03 00 1B 6B 60 0A 00 13 00 00 10 Buffer x07830140: Len x10000 9:42:20 PM #14 TRANSFER -25 File Reader.cpp, Line 270 Error reading data 9:42:20 PM #15 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 273 Exception value: -1040 9:42:20 PM #16 CDCOPY -12 File DVDReader.cpp, Line 144 Unrecoverable read error at LBA 1796960 9:42:20 PM #17 Phase 67 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1760 Burn process failed 9:42:20 PM #18 Text 0 File SCSIPTICommands.cpp, Line 254 SPTIDismountVolume - completed successfully for FSCTL_DISMOUNT_VOLUME 9:42:20 PM #19 Text 0 File SCSIPTICommands.cpp, Line 411 UnLockMCN - completed sucessfully for IOCTL_STORAGE_MCN_CONTROL 9:42:20 PM #20 Text 0 File Cdrdrv.cpp, Line 10538 DriveLocker: UnLockVolume completed Existing drivers: File 'Drivers\PXHELP20.SYS': Ver=2.03.18a, size=20576 bytes, created 9/4/2007 1:27:25 AM (Prassi/Veritas driver for win 2K) Registry Keys: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\AllocateCDROMs : 0 (Security Option)
Have you tried to just rip what's on the DVD to your HDD instead of trying to do a direct disk to disk copy? Try cleaning the disk with a nonabrasive solution like eyeglass cleaner. Wipe from the center toward the edge and not in circles around the disk. Try a different drive for reading. Some drives are much better readers than others; some are more forgiving and can recover better from read errors. You could also try ISOBuster; http://www.isobuster.com
Did you burn your files as data using Burning ROM? Do you have another drive or PC that you could try rereading the data on the disc with or maybe even another program such as Imgburn in "read" mode.
