I have a problem. Whenever i want to burn a data compilation to a princo 2x dvd-r disk it gives me a few errors neer the end of the disk. one of the errors are: Fast user switching detected - buffer underrun error might occor. another error is a burner fixation error or something. Are the disks crappy or is my writer bugged.. I used Elby CloneDVD as well to burn a ISO that was created and i also get a error. I have burned previous dvd-r disks on this writer with no problem. I have tried a udf iso as well.
It is definately the Disc's.When CompUSA had a sale 15 Disc's for $10.00,I bought 150 Disc's.At the time I thought a DVD is a DVD,but that's not so.The Disc's had plenty of bad blocks in them,about 50%.I've tried many different brands since then,and now I've settled on 2 brands.
Ritek GO4's have given me over 200 burns with no problems
ProDisc,which I recently tried have given me 30 straight clean burns.Incedently these are very economical.
I buy printable Dics's as they have a completely white face,gives you a nice surface to write on.
Or you can invest in a printer (Epson Stylus Photo R300 for about $190.00),prints right to Disc.Very Attractive labels
If u use this site much you will find most here preffer the Ritek Disc's
You can check the priceing at this reliable site www.supermediastore.com they deliver,check for the sales & u can even get free shipping,& some nice cases for your Disc's
HOPE this helps
my 2 lil cents: Princo... not very compatible (at least on my xbox). I like using Verbatim Branded (2.4x preferred), also TDK 4x. Oh, Sony media isn't that good either :)
I had some problems with TDK to not as bad,but still had problems.Memorex!Problems here too.
I'm tellin YA!!!For the price U can't beat Ritek GO4 4x burn White-Printable surface.No stamped surface of any kind,u have the whole thing to write,or print on,& all for under a BUCK.You can even find free shipping
Another GOOD Disc is ProDisc,this site listed is a GOOD reliable site check it out.You get your shipment within 5 working days.
