Cant copy copied dvds on

first you just take the image of the DVD and just start with the nero image burning try this it will work ..................

hi, Pl ensure that pc virtual memory is not full. try to delete all temp file fm %user% profile, and try again.
Also try to burn another DVD for music/video , and also there should not be any data protection.
If probelm persist then try to swap the dvd rom along with the cable.

First option is use a program that removes most copy protection of DVD movies. The best free software program i could recommend is DVD43. Try this together with Nero. This software combination works perfectly. When burning with Nero, try a lower burning speed.
Second option is use a DVD cleaning kit. Never clean the lens of your DVD Drive by opening it by yourself. The lens are very sensitive. A slight re-alignment will cause your drive to unread your disks. Before burning DVD disks, clean it with a soft cloth and wipe the disk from center to edge and never wipe in circular directions, this will create scratches.
Third option is to buy a new DVD drive if option 1 and 2 dont work.

I think its could problems with your media that burned.
You already burned one disk so that disk as no problem when you burned it.

you should use some cleaner to clean the scratches of the DVD and the copy it.
I think you will able to do copy then.

go into ,y computer -> right click dvd drive & left click open to see files on disk -> right click file and choose copy -> minimise window -> right click blank space on desktop and try paste - - - so try copying file manually with out 3rd party application like nero etc

simply use linux ubuntu and an app called DVD rip

unlike windows linux doesn't have any "legal" problems

Let me clarify something. mathers9312 asked specifically,

"cant copy _copied_ dvds..."

If you're attempting to copy _copies_ of commercial DVDs, don't. Unless you own BOTH the original AND the copy already made, I doubt you have any imaginable right to make a copy of the copy (and if you owned the original, why attempt making a copy of the copy, anyway?).

That said, IF the original question was a simple misstatement and you are simply attempting to copy DVDs you legally own for purposes of archiving/backup, here are the culprits I'd look to:

1. Parameters in your burning software are mis-set. Try lowering the burn speed, turning off write verification (sure, you might thereby burn a coaster, but in some cases it does help to turn off verification).

2. Defective media: this could be either the burn media or the original media. Clean the original DVD by wiping with a soft, clean cloth from the center hole directly to the outside edge. NEVER wipe the DVD is a circular motion around the circumfrence of the media.

3. Defective DVD writer: This could be something as simple as a dirty lens. DO NOT attempt to wipe the lens by hand or blow it clean with canned air. Either of those techniques could affect alignment/mechanical elements. Purchase a CD/DVD cleaning disk kit. WallyWorld and many other discount stores has them at a very inexpensive price.

4. Copy Prrotection on the original DVD you are attempting to copy. Frankly, this sort of thing chaps my gizzard. :-) We all have a legitimate right under fair use to make backup/archive copies of media we have purchased (as long as we do not sell or give away those copies). http://www.dvd43.com/ is a source for one software application designed to allow folks to make legal copies of CDs/DVDs they have a legal right to make backup/archive copies of.

check the memory of ur dvd frm which u want to copy it might be of 8gb

CHECK THE SPEED YOU ARE BURNING AT AND TRY BURNING A MUSIC CD.
IF YOU CAN BURN A MUSIC CD THE UNIT IS MOST LIKLY WORKING PROPERLY.
(THERE IS A NEW COPY PROTECTION SKEEM OUT THERE AND IT GOES THROUGH THE MOTIONS AND AT THE END ....
NADA IT DID NOT BURN PROPERLY AND MAKES THD MEDIA LEFT UNUSABLE

Use a slower burn rate, and another brand of +R dvd's

Try to copy another dvd with Img Burn (http://www.imgburn.com/)

try opening it up and cleaning the head of the dvd its a little glass piece inside it witch reads the cd.

dvd writer probelm


repalce dvd writer or repair dvd writer

ensure that you dvd-rom is working perfectly and also check your settings when copying with nero,uncheck verify files afte writing .

Reinstall nero and try it again.........

*try it in other system

* change the cable of dvd
