What is the Brand of DVD media?

Is the media new or have you used this media before?

I was asking is the brand of DVD media you are using is new? Even if the brand isn't new is it a new package (just opened)?

Have you checked to make sure your drives are still in DMA mode?

You don't have to go to your bios.. Just download the file and follow these instructions..
How to use:
1. Extract the file and Copy DVFLASH.exe and 150D_SCR.bin to the destination folder. To make this as easy as possible put the two file in a folder under your C:\ drive called FLASH
2. Reboot your PC under real DOS mode and enter the target folder.To enter DOS when your computer is booting up continue to hit the F8 key and select DOS
3. Execute "DVFLASH 150D_SCR.bin".At the C:\ prompt type "CD\FLASH" hit enter at the next prompt type "DVFLASH" and hit enter

This is what Firmware updates are for!! To recognize otherwise unrecognizable media. This should have been the first step..
