cd-rewriter problems with external usb enclosure - Club CDFreaks

dirtdog714 · 26-08-2004

I have been having problems getting my Liteon 52327S CDRW to work in my Bytecc external USB enclosure. Sometimes I can copy a CD sucessfully, most most of the time it fails towards the end of the writing process. I thought I had a bad burner and replaced it with a new one, but it is doing the same thing. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I am not sure if the problem is being caused by the burner, enclosure, or some windows setting. Does it matter how I have the jumpers configured on the cdrw?

Here are some details of my system:

windows xp pro w/ sp1
512 mb ram
Biostar Nforce 2 M7NCD Pro MB

I have a DVD rom and DVD-rw on IDE 2 both of which work fine

Most likely an external enclosure issue...
Are you sure you are connecting to a USB 2.0 port?
What are you connecting to on your PC? (PCI card or motherboard built in port)
What software are you using to burn?
What discs are you using to burn?
What speed are you burning at?
