hello, my drive LG GCC-4521B is not reading DVD 9. it had read many cd's before now it is not. i do all the following steps general things to do...a lot of the below apply to CD as well, not only DvD: 1. go through the 10 points listed @ http://www.mrbass.org/dvdnewbie/ [ you may not be a newbie, but the trouble is, and might be related to one or more of the listed items ]. note: very important to keep the transfer mode on IDE channels in DMA mode. check them every now and then, they can change. 2. a) know your drive's capabilities. use nero info tool. also go to the drive maker's website and find out what media types and brands, and at what speed to those media types, the drive supports. [ eg., my pioneer 107d can burn to dvd-rw @ 4x without trouble, but my optorite 401 can only burn @ 2x to dvd-rw even though Nero and other burning programs will offer to burn @ 4x and will produce a "successfull" disc @ 4x...it ends up a coaster ] b) update the firmware of the drive. check for updates @ http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php 3. a) try another brand of CD/DvD disc. b) try burning at lower speed. eg., don't try burning at 24x to 16x media; burn according to MEDIA speed limits, don't try to burn at the cd/dvd drive max speed until you are certain that you can do so without negative consequences. 4. a) disable and/or uninstall any virtual drives. b) install an aspi layer. preferred is v460. get it @ http://www.snapfiles.com/get/aspilayer.html 5. a) update the burning program you are using to the latest release. b) uninstall any recently installed software. c) do a virus scan, and a scan with spybot s & d [ get it @ http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html ] 6. for XP or Win2K users, optimise your operating system Services for best system performance. for info go to http://www.blackviper.com/WinXP/service411.htm#Alerter and http://www.freeware-alternative.uni....roller-xp.html 7. before burning, open taskmanager and shutdown ALL unneeded processes that are running. 8. a) try another burning software and see if you get a better result. deepburner standard is free. get it @ http://www.deepburner.com/ b) for users of alcohol 120%, update to the latest drives support DLL [ look for topic "Alcohol 120% Device Support Patch Released" @ http://forum.alcohol-soft.com/index.php?showforum=10 ] c) if you have multiple burning softwares installed, uninstall them all, then install one. test it. install another if needed. test it, and so on... 9. make sure mainboard chipset drivers are up to date. make sure all cables and jumpers connected to drives are correctly configured with regard to master/slave setup. 10. enter your BIOS and disable anything you don't use. set memory speeds to default. set cpu speed to default. if you overclock, DON'T [ until you are certain that overclocking is not the cause of the trouble ]. 11. if you still cannot fix the problem, try the drive or the DvD disc you are having problems with in another PC that has no burning issues...if possible. is their any trick to incerase the gain of lens pickup unit (any hardware presets ... controls ) Thanks in advancer RGDS mahesh
