I have read forums for 2 days, I can't seem to find a direct answer, so maybe some nice person will help!
I have used dvdfab with dvdshrink for almost a year, burned about 150 staples dvds, NO problem (yes, I know, they are cheap, but they worked). Also, not knowing, I've ALWAYS ran programs in the background with no problem (office, internet explorer, etc.)
I started getting errors (probably based on the new copyright stuff, so I followed afterdawn advice and got rip4you/dvddecrypter/shrinkdvd, and quit running programs in the background. What a charm!!
Well, a few dvd's later, i started getting failed burns--would burn to 100% done, then the final step I'd get "fixation errors", I couldn't burn anything, so I followed advice posted and bought verbatim media. My first dvd burned fine. BUT my next attempt my cpu started bogging down to 100% usage, even opening task mgr took forever. After about 2 hours, it finally said it burned my dvd on the verbatim, but the finished disk was not usable/readable.
For the heck of it I tried using dvdfab, which had never used 100% cpu before and now IT was using up that also, so any dvd program I use COMPLETELY bogs down my computer, how can I stop this?? I don't know if I have the "fixation" error anymore because I don't have the patience to spend 3 hours doing one disc. Like I said, the last dvd said it burned successfully after hours, but it wouldn't work!
I have a lite-on dvd burner 16x, I'm semi-computer literate, heck, I've figured this much out, but honestly don't have anyone to help me! I can try to print logs if that helps, I really tried to read through all the posts, but couldn't find a real answer. thanks!
