Hi all,

I am a rooky in this forum and i definitely need your help.

I have a SAMSUNG TS-H552B DVDDRIVE IN MY PC.
My pc is a P4, 3.00GHZ, LGA775, PRESCOTT, 1.00GHZ SDRAM,
WINDOWS 2000 PROFFESIONAL OS, WD40GB HD.
i've the latest firmware (TS-10) in my drive,
and i aw writing dvd's, first by decrypting them with DVD SHRINK,
and then burn by Nero 6 ultra editon.
So far i am only burning dvd-r media. (various brands, tdk, maxell, etc)
The problem is that i can never have a writing speed in my media more than 2x.
Even though i choose from nero to write at 4x, 6x, 8x, the result is always the same. (2x and 30min. of waiting).
According to the manuf. site my drive supports dvd-r at max. 8x.

Can you please help me?

Many thanks in advance

Make sure your drive is in DMA mode and not PIO. Here is a guide

also, MAKE SURE your drive is updated with the latest firmware to recognize said media at various speeds:

TS10 should be the newest one~

good luck~

and i'll join the queue with the proverbial logfile request....

...let's have LAST section of your Nero log which lives in c:\program files\ahead\nero\nerohistory.log but DO NOT post your serial number which usually begins with '1A21' or similar. You can differentiate sections via this section divider "====== *** Nero-Burning Rom, History File *** ======"

happy burning, however i'd still like a look thru the logfile, it helps to check/tweak things just the once to guarantee continued success
