Correct me if I'm wrong here. Once upon a time, consumer DVD burners were limited to burning single-layer DVD's with a capacity of around 5 gb per disk. But (all?) commercial movie DVD's come on dual-layer disks with a capacity of up to 9 gb. So it was never possible for the home computer user...

I was just wondering what speeds most people are burning at and how long it takes. Thanks Liteon 52*24*52

I foolishly threw $40 away on a new Samsung DVD Writer that does not work. I stupidly bought an OEM version from NewEgg, rather than simply pay another $8-10 dollars for the retail version, and now it will probably take weeks for my to get a replacement from Samsung, if I can get any at all, and I...

wrote: Hello Does anyone know how if there is a way to access a DVD that the drive it was burnt with will not recognise? The DVD was written with Nero 7 at 4x and UDF 1.2 was used because it is one big file of 4.3GB. The drive is Lite-on DVDRW LDW-811S. This...

My Compaq Presario came with Win me two years ago. Since I installed "clean" W2K prof. Recently I've had numerous problems especially with the two drives, CD RW and CD/DVD player (Several weeks apart). The H/W is recognized and configured properly without any conflict, but when I insert a CD/DVD...

Curious which is the most reliable? Using DirectCD it seems I often get warnings about data corruption. Usually after 10-20 cycles.

Hi all, not a regular but i'm going to propose a situation for chat/talk, etc. First off, we all see at best buy the 'audio' blank cdr's that are basicly the computer cdr's with a different package label. For the audio-files, we're just talking here that in basic, they're the same cd's. As in if...

If you're talking about booting to an SCSI drive, you have to have "boot from SCSI" enabled in your BIOS, and it have to be before the HD in the boot sequence. "Fishface" ? wrote in message ... Does anyone have this drive, and can you boot...

I recently went to a flea market looking to replace an old DVD burner. Several dealers had OEM Lite-On and LG drives, and on closer examination I noticed something I hadn't seen before. Stamped right into the metal cover of the drive housing near the analog and digital audio out headers were...

My project consisted of getting 2 gb worth of .jpg, .txt and .doc files with really long names and complex (long names again) folder structures onto 4 CDRs. As suggested by Ric, I zipped all the files in my project into 4 big zip files, each about 500 mb. This preserves the long file names when the...

Hi all, I'm trying to understand how I need to configure my computer for data backup. I currently have Norton Ghost and Nero Express 5.5 (the latter came with my CD-R) and I'm trying to decide whether I also need Nero full and / or Arrowkey AccuBurn-R. Any opinions? Regards,

What software will handle DVD-RAM ? My default burning program ( Nero - v6.6.0.1 ) does not appear to be fully compatible with this format.

My Lite-On dvd-cd won't read DirectCD disks on CD-R. They will read regular cd-r written on identical media, and will also read DirectCD on dvd+rw. I have installed the latest firmware update for the lite-on. Also, these directCD disks are readable on other cd-roms. I have working with Dell...

I just bought a new DVD-R and it came with Nero 6. I had Nero 5 and it worked perfectly. When I try to install Nero 6 it tells me it can't find a file on the drive and the the install fails. If I try over and over, it may be a different file it can't find. It will install perfectly on any...

Are there any free alternatives? It is destroying my CDs with gay abandon at the moment when I try to format them for data (directed) (just had about 5 straight failures). I am wondering if it is EZCDCreator or just a real bad bunch of disks, I bought 50 and only about 2 in 10 (if that) work....
