I started a thread regarding my Plextor having problems with CDs but not with DVDs. I called Plextor and they said that they have seen this before, where more likely it's electronic. Is this a specific problem with Plextor or is this a problem with other manufacturers as well?

Amanda's eyes actually widened. If I were just ten percent less jaded, I thi nk I might have fallen in love. "What? No," I said. "I had an Atari when I was younger, but that was a long time ago. Do you have any organs, like a heart or a brain?" "Well, then," I said. "Let's go have a meeting." "The...

Anyone knows, who makes TDK d-view color (1-48x) CDR's? Info just says TDK...And they burn up to full 52x in my very picky Plex Premium drive. Even Plextor CDR?s (made by TY) are not - burning lowers speed just before finish - at appr. 50x speed drive lowers to 40x. But TDK goes perfectly, so i...

Try burn4free, in xp nothing extra is needed, not sure about win98se since I already had aspi stuff on that partition. Also burnatonce, but for some strange reason, on my setup I can't make multi session work, but others do so it's me - strange. I prefer burn4free since it has a built in...

I use Nero 6 & Burrrn. Nero will burn a CUE file going up against an Album.FLAC using the FLAC plugin without the need to decompress the Album.FLAC file first. It can also burn individual Song.FLAC files. When it comes to using a CUE file pointing to individual Song.FLAC files or even...

I need to contact Utmost Technology for customer service, and there's no manual and no number or address on the box. (It's a CD ROM R/W burner). They don't seem to have an internet site either. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could give me a contact number or address or website. Thanks.

Running on WindowsXP Pro with Roxio's DirectCD 5.x and Iomega DVD+RW burner. DirectCD 5.x working wonderfully with WindowsXP and CD-RW and DVD+RW drives. After running Windows Update with HighMAT (from Windows Update), the system didn't recognise the burners (CD+RW and DVD+RW). The bios...

I see good reports on NEC dual format dvd -- that makes me wonder why PCWORLD doesn't have NEC on their top 5 or 10 list? (Let's limit the conspiracy theorists to half a dozen posts, eh.) thanks for your input - it's time to buy something Bill

I've been reading on the dvd drives that they need 800mhz or above. All I want to do is burn six 650 meg ghost images to the disk for achiving. Will my 550mhz work or will I have problems? Thanks, Chris

I'm using Windows-XP Home and just upgraded to a Memorex Combo Drive (Write CD-R/RW & play DVD). I can rip from the drive but cannot burn to it. The programs I use are MusicMatch Plus v8.1 & EZ CD Creator v6 both show "No Media" when I try to burn. I have tried 3 brands of blank media...

Using ECDC6 with latest drive updates applied, my Plextor 708A is writing Princo DVD-RW at 1X (instead of 2X) and Sony DVD+RW at 2.4X (instead of 4X). Are different brand media hardcoded with a max rated speed for writing? Is there any utility to read any such information off the DVD (+-R...

I have both an Acer DR-ROM drive & a Liteon CD burner which I use with Nero 6. Every so on I click on the burn tag & in about 10 seconds it makes a noise & says that the burn was a success when in reality nothing happened. It seems that every so on the burner isn't detected. I have even set it...
