HI!
Great site! I´ve been getting most of my problems solved here for years now without ever needing to post a question.
Until now.
I have an LG GH20LS10 dvd-rom. a week ago it started to burn sloooow It took 1/2hr to burn + 45min to verify. When it was burning, the PC was really slow!(ex. I couldn't play a video cause it got choppy. And then when verifying my PC "froze" so I had to wait until it finished verifying and instantly all went back to normal.
A little history
A week before this happened , I did some minor tweaking with TweakUI and when I rebooted my windows user was gone and replaced with the Administrator. All my files where there in my previous user so I just coppied them to the administrator folder. could anything have gone wrong there?
This is what I have tried.
Downloaded newest driver(which was thee same i had) GH20LS10_FL01
No changes
Updated(Flashed) MOBO.
Ok, THIS, did improve things a lot.It takes the same amount of time to burn+verify. But I can use the PC while burning (moderately, can´t play videos yet) and when verifying It slows a LOT like it was when burning before flashing.
Anything else I can try? I read around It may be cables or watts issue, I don{t think this is my case since I´ve been steadily using this for quite a time,
Ok, so I read some more and I cleaned the dvd-rom completely and reinstalled the drivers.
Now it works fine-ER.
PC didn´t slow down while burning and only took 10min to burn and xx to verify.
