I didn't use to get this error (see screenshot), but now I am getting I/O errors when trying to copy a DVD to the harddrive. I have tried using both DVD Decrypter, Nero and Windows own copy program, but I get the I/O error everytime on both my DVD drives.
I am not sure whether it has anything to do with the 200gb SATA drive I recently installed. Anyone got an idea of what to do? I'd appreciate any help!

The "Current Transfer Mode" setting should read something like "Ultra DMA Mode 2" or something to that effect and not N/A.
What are the devices on the chain? Are they both optical drives? If they are, I'd suggest uninstalling both drives through Device Manager, reboot, then let Windows automatically detect and reinstall the drives. Check the settings again see if that cleared up whatever problem there was with the transfer modes.

Nephilim> I have to postpone trying the suggestions out, as some things have come up. I will be able to try your suggestions on Saturday and I'll let you know if it worked.
Yes, both drives are optical (a DVD drive and a DVD+RW drive). I tried uninstalling them as you suggested and now they say "Multi-Word DMA Mode 2" and "Ultra DMA Mode 2" (see screenshot), so atleast that looks better, however I am still getting an I/O Error (see screenshot).
Other tips you (or anyone) have that I could try out; I am pretty much open to trying everything except format C:\.
