I have tried several times to burn a DVD-R without success. First, I got the message "write operation was not successful. Selection timeout occurred. Check cables adn power. The disc is not successful recorded". Nothing was running in the background to save RAM. I got this message twice. So I uninstalled the software and the USB and reinstalled and plug in the USB cord. This time I got further along but then I received this message, "Burn failed. Burn process failed at 2x(2,760 KB/s). If you know why I can't successful burn a DVD-R, please let me know what I'm doing wrong. All help will be appreciated.
Myrtle7,
I can tell you are using an external burner and -R blank media. Thats about all I can surmise from your post.
I want to know everything about your system:
OS, CPU, RAM, HDD. What DVD programs you have installed and which ones you are trying to use.
Tell me about your burner and the blank media you have.
The operating system is XP; the CPU is Compaq; the RAM is 224 MB; and the HDD is 74.5. I don't know if the USB is an 1.0 or 2.0, how would you know the different? The DVD program installed is the software that came along with the system. 321Studios DVD-XCopy copy is the software. The drive is a Sony external system.
