I've been using the Cendyne DVD Writer, which is supposed to be the
same as the Pioneer DVR-105. It worked fine for about a year, the
last 6 months on Windows XP pro. Suddenly, it stopped burning data
CD's properly. If I burn an Audio Cd, it works fine. If I burn a
data CD, it burns and says everything completely properly, but when I
put it in the machine, (I've tried it in multiple computers) it can't
read the Cd, or shows it as unformatted. I've tried
Using different burning software
Upgrading the firmware
Reinstalling, (fresh reimage) XP
Downgrading, (fresh image), to Windows 2k and reinstalling
This problem appeared out of the blue and I ahve not been able to
resolve it. What is really thorwing is that it will burn the audio
CD's without any problem. If not for this I'd assume it was a
hardware issue. Any input and/or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much.
