"Power calibration failed." with Traxdata 48/12/48 and burnatonce
Hello,
I've got a problem burning CDs with my Traxdata 48/12/48 and burnatonce (as well with Nero) under WinXP Pro SP1, just after starting the burning, it stops, the log i get is as following: SPTILOCK:0,1,0: CD-RW CDR-5W48 Rev: VSG3 Starting write at speed 48... Turning BURN-Proof on Executing power calibration... ?: I/O error. : scsi sendcmd: retryable error CDB: 54 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 status: 0x0 (GOOD STATUS) cmd finished after 5.370s timeout 180s ERROR: Power calibration failed. ERROR: Use option --force to ignore this error. ERROR: Writing failed. I have got a SCSI card mounted in my system but it is disabled, and the CD-Writer is an IDE device. I've searched quite a while with Google and in the Usenet, this problem seems to appear as well under Linux, but I don't think the most common answer "clean the laser lense" does apply to my problem, because the Writer worked fine in my system until I killed my bios and then got a new mainboard and as well reinstalled WinXP. Is there anyone with an idea how to solve my problem? Thanks, Lars |

This is often due to really crappy media, try something else. excuse me, that I have to ask again, with "media" do you mean the disk I write on or the data I try to write on disc? with best regards lars |

Your blank CDR's Ok, thanks for your answer, but I don't think this is the cause for the problems, I now expericenced this problem with two different brands of blank cdr's... Any other idea? With best regards, Lars |

Any other idea? The symptoms you describe can result from either a bad hardware or bad media. If you are sure it isn't the media then it's time to look at the hardware. Maybe your hardware is just dirty, and cleaning it will help. Maybe your laser is getting weak and you'll have to buy a new cd burner. Isaac |

SPTILOCK:0,1,0: CD-RW CDR-5W48 Rev: VSG3
Disable the STPI interface. It's too new in Burnatonce. Use ASPI 4.60 to access drives. |

Thank you, I tried this, disabling the STPI-Interface and installing ASPI (version 4.71, since I didn't find 4.60 for WinXP anywhere...), but it still says: ASPILOCK:1,1,0: CD-RW CDR-5W48 Rev: VSG3 Starting write at speed 48...

What media, exactly, have you tried? Exactly the ones I used to use before I reinstalled may system, the first is a CD-R 700MB/80Min with 40x speed (Brand: Octron), the other is a CD-R 700MB/80Min with 48x speed (Brand: i-b@se); I think these are both german brands. Best regards Lars |

Thanks, but I still can't believe this, since the drive is only a 3/4 year old and as it worked fine until the re-installation. Best regards Lars |
