You are probably right. I am just curious about what you know about this problem.
Here is what I did. I uninstalled the VIA Miniport Driver I am finally able to
burn DVDs.
Doesn't it spell r-e-l-i-e-f?

It did until the Zip drive stopped working.

One program, the free version of DeepBurner, was able to burn files on the DVD
but then was not able to Eject, even though it said that it did, after which I
could not open my DVD drive. After I rebooted I was able to open the DVD drive
and the files that were burned were on it when I next booted back to Win2k.
The Nero demo version was the worst failure, unable to do practically anything
and full of bugs, like telling me repeatedly that my drive had data and, after I
told it to erase the data, repeating the same thing again ad nauseam without
doing anything. It also hung up in the Lead-Something state forever when burning
some files on the DVD and eventually I was able to kill it, although stopping it
was a PITA. This may be a demo version but it sure does not sound as if Nero is
very good.
And you said the Samsung was crappy, too.
|
No, I am not being derogatory. It may well be the hardware setup. It just did
not work properly. My remark regarding the Samsung was because it was not
working, and I was just annoyed. You wised me up to the fact that it was not the
DVD but the VIA hardware, and I appreciate it.

Finally I was able to use Paragon ISO Burner to burn files from my hard disk to
a DVD-RW 4X disk successfully and it successfully ejected the disk when it was
finished. I will next try to use it to burn an ISO image.
However my zip drive now no longer works properly. I set the Zip drive to PIO
Mode 1 in the BIOS, as per Via's instructions. Without the Via IDE Miniport
Driver I could not set the PIO Mode in Win2k to PIO Mode 3, as I could through
the Via driver, but I could set it to PIO Mode as opposed to DMA mode. However
the zip drive just hangs after a while when attempting to copy files to it.
It sounds like you are saying that with a Zip drive I can not burn CDs, so to be
able to use my burner I must give up the zip drive. It seems there should be
some way around this problem. While I can now burn CDs I do not want to give up
my zip drive if possible.
In order for the Zip drive to function properly you need the driver.
|
If I reinstall the IDE Miniport driver, the CD burner stops working again.
| Quote: | Reinstall it and see if Paragon still able to burn. If it doesn't, see
if rebooting with a zip disk in the drive makes any difference.
|
OK, I will try this, but even if it works it seems an unfortunate solution.
| Quote: | If it
still doesn't, I'm outa ideas except to say check out Iomega/Zip/Via
forums for a newer driver.
|
There is no other driver from Via. I have asked on the Via Arena forum about
this problem but no one has responded. I guess because it is an old chipset they
do not feel it is worth helping out anymore, or maybe they know of the conflict
between DVD burner and Zip drive, and there is no software solution for it.
I really appreciate all your help. Thanks very much. Perhaps I should just give
up on my zip drive and just burn CDs instead to backup or move data. I still
have a sneaking suspicion that, from what you have told me of Nero being top
notch, something is either still wrong, which may be simply having the Zip drive
there and the PIO modes, or the Nero demo version is buggy a bit.
I am going to just set the zip drive to normal DMA, in the BIOS and under Win2k,
and see what happens with it and the DVD burner. Perhaps Microsoft Win2k updates
have fixed the problem entirely and Via's previous advice is now just dead
wrong. They do say that the Miniport driver is legacy, so i will assume the
advice they gave for it and the Zip drive, is so also since it can no longer be
found on their web site.
I tend to doubt that an IOMega update will do anything. There have been numerous
ones since the zip drive problem first was documented, and I have kept up with
the new installations pretty thoroughly. If they had a fix on their end, it
would probably have already appeared long ago. |

Cool.

Sounds like you still have issues related to the drivers or the hardware
itself then.
This may be a demo version but it sure does not sound as if Nero is
very good.
Nah, Nero is about the best, most powerful, most compatible burning
suite there is. If it doesn't work for you, it's probably worth finding
out why, as chances are it's a problem with your particular setup than
Nero itself.
It sounds like you are saying that with a Zip drive I can not burn
CDs, so to be able to use my burner I must give up the zip drive.
That may be the ultimate solution for you, but you shouldn't give up too
soon.
It seems there should be some way around this problem. While I can
now burn CDs I do not want to give up my zip drive if possible.
And you shouldn't have to. Most controller-floptical-optical writer
combinations work fine together. Your problem may be a mutual hardware
incompatibility, it may be drivers. It may be as simple as making sure
that the Zip and the DVD-RW drive are on separate branches of the
controller (if you haven't done so already).
|
Unfortunately they alread are. The zip drive is the master on my secondary
controller, with no slave, and the DVD drives are both on my primary controller.

Stick with it, as chances are you'll be able to get everything working

Thanks for the encouragement. I wish Via would say something, since I posted the
problem on one of their Via Arena forums, but it is an old chipset so I think
they are not very much concerned. |

When I reset my zip drive to dma mode in Wink and the BIOS, everything appears
to be working properly finally. I can write to the zip drive without problems

I am keeping my fingers crossed that this will continue to work.
I guess I should have uninstalled my Via Miniport Driver and set my zip drive

use Nvidia mobos and ignore Via from now on, and hopefully I will not have such
foolish problems.
Thanks very much pointing me in the right direction that this was a Via problem
and not a problem with my DVD drive. |

Removing the Via Miniport IDE driver and setting my zip drive back to DMA, both
in the BIOS and under Win2k, appears to have solved the problem for writing to
the zip drive and burning to the DVD. Of course I am hoping it does not reoccur
as I try now to work with both from time to time. |

Ok. Sounds like a driver bug or a driver installation bug then. If
you have been swapping drives and cables around then that could
contribute.
Alas, from your other posts it sounds like you have it working.
Didn't the custom to use "signed" drivers start in win2k? Signed
meaning: thoroughly tested by more parties than just the code writer.
I dunno, maybe signed drivers started with winxp. Personally I would
not install unsigned drivers on my machine.
I hear in windows vista (code named longhorn) that *only* signed
drivers may be installed. It will no longer be a user option.

They are different measures and while they do have a gross

I still feel that C1 and C2 errors are substantially different.

I think that a C2 error is a C1 error(s) that couldn't be corrected
with the C1 error correction capabilities. They're not independant,
they're basically the same thing except for which level of error
correction can correct the error. You're using a program that just
doesn't report C1 errors, as indicated by the fact that the "C1 error"

Now I know why you can create disks that have no C1 errors.

Obviously, YMMV, but after I got my rebate and the discs were
essentially free, I determined that they're not worth the price.
Given the high error rates those discs delivered on each of my drives
They are marginal if you burn no more than 60 minutes per disc
- or if you just don't care about the error rates.

Did you indeed get high error rates with your drives, not dug out of

There are three burners on which I've tried them with equivalent
results. All are Plextor SCSI and all deliver excellent results on
good media: 1210, 820 and 412.
======================
There's no way you could have gotten the error rates with those drives.
Why not? Because those drives do not report C1 errors, despite they
are Plextors and SCSI.
Are you sure you did not dig them out of your assholes?

I burned a PP 80 in my Ricoh 6201s at its maximum write speed - 2x.
The result is much the same as it was at higher speeds
and I've posted
the report of a quick scan (sufficient in this case)
The software is CD-R Inspector, big brother to CD-R Diagnostic
======================
Guess you had no choice but to burn at 2x, that being the max speed,
isn't that right, Slimey? But why didn't you use Plextor 1210 and burn
at 12x? After all you were supposed to have gotten the high error rates
with Plextors, not Ricoh.
And much the same result at 2x and 12x? Doesn't it then give one more
reason why you should have posted the result of Plextor 12x?
Maybe this post of yours has something to do with why you used Ricoh 2x
instead of Plextor 12x? Couldn't even get soft/hard errors with Plextor
12x?
----------------------
From: Mike Richter (Slimy Friggin SOB)
Date: 10/9/03
There is an optimum burn speed for any medium in any writer.
In general, a rating for a higher speed is optimized for
higher-speed writers.
For example, 12x media seldom write well below 4x.
----------------------
Did the Quick scan report the error rates? No? Would the Complete scan
have reported the error rates? No? No report of error rates, but
sufficient? Didn't you care about the error rates??!!
Wonder who's the asshole that spewed this?
"if you just don't care about the error rates"
Anyhow, how did you get the error rates when the Plextors did not report
C1 errors and CD-R Inspector/Diagnostic never supported error rates?
Did you dig them out of your assholes?

Obviously, YMMV, but after I got my rebate and the discs were
essentially free, I determined that they're not worth the price.
Given the high error rates those discs delivered on each of my drives
They are marginal if you burn no more than 60 minutes per disc
- or if you just don't care about the error rates.
======================
Did you indeed get high error rates with your drives, not dug out of
your assholes?
And Mikey cares about the error rates! But see below.

Just wondering if something is wrong with your burner as i have
burned over 400 of them and they are one of the best disks i ever
used so far. Never had a single error on even one disk

There are three burners on which I've tried them with equivalent
results. All are Plextor SCSI and all deliver excellent results on
good media: 1210, 820 and 412.
======================
There's no way you could have gotten the error rates with those drives.
Why not? Because those drives do not report C1 errors, despite they
are Plextors and SCSI.
Are you sure you did not dig them out of your assholes?

I burned a PP 80 in my Ricoh 6201s at its maximum write speed - 2x.
The result is much the same as it was at higher speeds
and I've posted
the report of a quick scan (sufficient in this case)
The software is CD-R Inspector, big brother to CD-R Diagnostic
======================
Guess you had no choice but to burn at 2x, that being the max speed,
isn't that right, Slimey? But why didn't you use Plextor 1210 and burn
at 12x? After all you were supposed to have gotten the high error rates
with Plextors, not Ricoh.
And much the same result at 2x and 12x? Doesn't it then give one more
reason why you should have posted the result of Plextor 12x?
Maybe this post of yours has something to do with why you used Ricoh 2x
instead of Plextor 12x? Couldn't even get soft/hard errors with Plextor
12x?

My Ricoh 6201s will write high-speed media, but the (recoverable)
error rate is significantly higher than when I feed it the blanks
it was designed to take.
The media I prefer are rated to 16x. In any of my drives, they
perform superbly from 4x-12x but show significant recoverable
errors at 2x
----------------------
Did the Quick scan report the error rates? No? Would the Complete scan
have reported the error rates? No? No report of error rates, but
sufficient? Didn't you care about the error rates??!!

Re: DVD Burner Problem |
|

OK. This is a long thread and it's some days old. I've checked all of it
and understandably nowhere has anyone suggested trying a 40 wire cable.
Recently I had a similar experence with a client who'd installed a new and
relatively expensive Plextor DVD-RW drive. We tried new drivers, setting
the drive jumpers to master and ensuring it was the only device on the cable
and also we tried a known good Pioneer DVD drive to check against the
Plextor. The results were similar to those obtained with the Plextor - i.e.
unreliable.
The customer had used an 80 wire IDE cable, but according to Plextor whom he
phoned, he should have used a 40 wire cable. Hey presto! when a 40 wire
cable was installed, all his problems went away and he can now reliably burn
DVDs. Their reasoning was that the 80 wire cable actually caused more
interference (crosstalk), which is the complete opposite of what I
understood 80 wire cables were for (i.e. to reduce crosstalk). Whatever,
although it sounds stupid and contradicts what we 'know', it worked. |
