Hello, I'm a long time browser, first time poster to the site. For a good while now (almost a year) I've been burning PS2 back-ups using DVD Decrypter or Alcohol 120% at 4X without a problem. At times, I would have music playing in the background. I never got any errors or problems with the final product of the burning process. Now, for the last few days, during the burning, the sound gets all weird, distorted and slow (even the small dings and such when clicking on something), and the burning speed won't go above 1.9X I've checked everything I could think of. DMA is turned on, I use Verbatim DVD-R media, with the media code of MCC 02RG20 on a NEC ND DVD_RW 3550A and my firmware is updated to 1.06, the highest I've seen. Is there any way that someone could help me with a solution?
When you burn a disc do not multa task, I know you did it befor but you got lucky unless you like your coasters in matching sets, try just burning a disc
Even if I do close down every single thing when I burn a DVD, any sound made on my computer (like the small sound I have set up for minimizing a window) is sluggish and distorted.
Try this.....
Go into the Device Manager, and find your drive(s). Right click on it, and choose "Uninstall". After it uninstalls, reboot, and let Windows detect new hardware, and install a new driver for you. Sometimes this fixes this problem, and sometimes it doesn't.
Good luck!
