I'm having a big problem burning media for a couple of weeks now. Here is the full story:
I purchased a new DVD burner (ASUS DRW2014L1T) ago after my old LG rubber got cut.
I installed it, connected it to my SATA extension (the old one was on IDE).
After using it a couple of times, I started experiencing burn failures time & time again (DVD+R & Duals as well), most reffered with a "Cycling Redundancy Check" to certain files.
I uninstalled the Nero 7 I had and installed Nero 8 I recieved with the burner, along with Lightscribe ware hoping this was the problem. It wasn't.
After being told to try a different media and seeing it's not the problem, I contacted the store and had it replaced to a new one (same).
Installed the new one again, and got my hopes shattered again.
Finally, I decided to try the same content I was trying to burn on dual on a my friend's computer, to see maybe it's a physicall problem with my computer and it was burned successfully to my delight (confirming it's not a problem with the burner).
Although I have 2 SATA extensions on my motherboard (SATA ver. 1), one connected to HD, and the burner is suitable for SATA 1, there was seem to be a problem. We decided to switch burners temporarilly for now, until I upgrade my computer and I got his LG (Dual on IDE, no Lightscribe).
I've burned with the LG a couple of discs successfully over the weekend and to my suprise, recived the same CRC error yet again.
Some info i'll add:
*On the device manager, the IDE controllers, both Primaty IDE Channles are on DMA (first on Ultra DMA 5, the other is on Ultra DMA 2). No PIO's.
*On the BIOS, the first HD is master, second HD is slave, and DVD is secondary master.
