View Full Version : My DVD Drive
A friend has burned a few movies on a few DVDs in AVI format. Out of convenience I tried to copy these to my hard drive. The DVD drive couldnt read them normally, then I had an error message: data error, cyclic redundancy chek.
What does that mean?!
The drive is an Asus DVD/rom E616 using Microsofts all purpose CD drivers that come with WinXP. Ive noticed it generallz reads DVDs poorly, and yet Ive bought it only half a year ago. Is this because of the driver not being made by Asus?
Thanks, people...
No. Asus or any other manufacturer doesn't have or need a driver for normal atapi drives. You just have a bad drive or cd's.

Create a DVD-size empty space on your hard drive next time you try burning a DVD. This error is definitely caused to due bad burning. Primarily, caching and secondarily, writing speed is closely related to the success rate of a burning process.
The closer empty space you have on your HDD to your media to be burnt, the higher success rate; the slower you burn it, the higher success rate.

It means you can't discuss it here.
Burning and copying copyright material is not open to discussion here.
