i just brought a pioneer dvr-710 burner. every time i try to burn a dvd i get an error message saying: burned process failed. i'm using nero 7 essentials that came with the dvd burner. i tried three times and wasted three dvd's so any suggestions would be great.

i did try to burn just a data dvd that didn't. i'm going to try and burn a cd and if that even works.

Nero 7 isn't the best CD/DVD burner IMO. The 6 version was a lot better. I have found that burning a DVD @ 8x on Nero 7 makes it burn successfully most of the time. If that doesn't work still, try 4x.

i'm not liking nero at the moment either. i have switched dvd-r as well and i do plan on trying to burn at a lower speed. thanks

 

[deleted24062011]

well burning at a slower speed didnt work. switching the brand of dvd-r's didn't work. so any suggestions on different burning software and brand of dvd-r's?

here is the error message i keep getting:
dma-driver error, crc error.
e: pioneer dvd-rw dvr-111d

 

[dai]

go into properties for the drive in the device manager and check the dma box is ticked

 

[deleted24062011]

i did do that, i didn't see anything listed for the dma.

 

[dai]

see what it is listed as in the bios

If it is listed in the bios as Dai had asked, you might need to uninstall then reinstall nero. CDFreaks talks about a different firmware for your drive.

 

[deleted24062011]

it is listed under the bios as: samsung dvd-rom sd-612. i have uninstalled nero twice already. i went to the cdfeaks link, and they were talking about switching out the 40ide with an 80. but i only have 40 on hand. thanks for all the suggestions=), anymore would be great.

dvd rw drives for last couple of years require the 80 wire
check the pioneer site for a firmware update

 

[deleted24062011]

well i did ordered some 80 wire cables, so i'm going to do anything until those come in. then i'll figure out the firmware. thanks again

 

[deleted24062011]

Thank you for all your suggestions=) i got an 80 pin ide cable and the burner is working great. thanks again
