i cannot read CD-R's on the drive with which they were written! they just dont get recognised and if i try to access the drive it returns 'D:\ is not accessible. Incorrect funciton'.
Liteon LTR-52246S CD-RW IDE secondary master.
Liteon LTN-483S CD-ROM IDE secondary slave.
i have reformatted and re-installed windows since i made these CD's using WinISO & Blindwrite on Win2K SP4.
I have used these discs on this drive before.
Firmware is latest
The CD-R's that DONT work on this drive DO work on other drives (incl. CD-ROM drive in besopke computer).
Now when i use 'Analyse CD' option in CDRWIN 5.05.001 with one of the non-working discs in the suspect drive it reports 'Session 1 (CD-XA)_
Traack 1, Mode: 2, Status: complete'
discs that DO work on this drive seem to have 'Session 1 (CD-ROM)'.
Can my drive suddenly not read CD-XA?
Is my CD-RW drive badgered?
I am p*ssed off with this problem.
Please help if you can, i would help u guys if i knew enough about something.
I've read more negative posts about Service Pack 4 for Win2k Pro, consider uninstalling.
I believe there is a LiteOn utility at the LiteOn main website to help you. Try burnatonce or FireBurner to see if you encounter the same problem.

i dont know if that makes a difference becuase i think its a problem with the drive rather than the media (these discs are successfully used in older cd-rom drives). I'm thinking maybe the drives bust.
im gonna try the drive in another machine tonite, with the subject disks to eliminate the OS, or not :).
