A few practical steps to try before assuming the drive is dead. Agree with that media-brand quirks are common, so start with a fresh pack of reputable blanks and force a much lower write speed (e.g., 16x or slower). Run a “simulation” or test-burn if your burning app supports it, and try a different burning program/version to rule software out.

Next, isolate the hardware path in a systematic order: put the burner alone on its IDE cable (remove the other optical drive), use an 80‑conductor IDE cable, and check jumper settings so the burner isn’t fighting another device on the same channel. Verify the controller is running in DMA mode (Device Manager -> IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers -> Primary/Secondary IDE Channel -> Advanced Settings -> Transfer Mode: “DMA if available”). If the channel is stuck in PIO, allow Windows to redetect the channel (uninstalling/rebooting will force detection) or test the drive on a different controller/machine to avoid risking your system disk driver.

If those steps don’t help, escalate carefully: update or try alternate burning software, and consider a firmware update only from the drive manufacturer’s official file for the exact model (follow the vendor’s instructions exactly; a bad firmware flash can render a drive unusable). Also check for interfering utilities (packet‑writing, virtual CD drivers, heavy background tasks) and verify power connections—optical drives can misbehave with marginal power.

Prioritized checklist summary:

  • Try different, known-good media at slower speed.
  • Remove the second optical drive; use an 80‑wire cable.
  • Ensure DMA is enabled (and reset the IDE channel if it’s in PIO).
  • Test with different burning software and, if needed, update firmware from the vendor.
  • If still failing, test the drive in another PC or consider warranty service.

These steps separate media, software, driver, cabling, and hardware causes so the root problem can be identified without guessing.

I Have the Same Problem with my LiteOn DVD-RW and I tryed updating the firmware BUT everytime i click on the file to update the fireware the link takes me to the same page. But i have came to the conclusion that it may be the brand of disc i try to burn on to because some brands work but most dont. this may help if you havent seen it go to this forum http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/202926 but if you find a real firmware update help me!!!!!!!
