My Teac 1x1 dvd/d11A/kit burner/Dvw/D11A: will not copy Dvd, keep getting the message: "target drive not ready". Unit copies cd's alright.

The laser inside the device could be broken, i.e., not generating any laser-beam. Or, the receiver (that senses the reflection of the laser-beam) could be broken.

Does the disk drive play the disk? If not, the drive could be faulty. If not, then the disk can bec copy protected

Where can I get the firmware update for the DVW-D11 ????

Sounds like you made a data disk with MP3s and not an audio cd.

To play on a "regular" CD player, you should burn an audio cd.

Different burning programs have different options for this.

99% of burners switCH auto from cd to dvd. just select corresponding option in burning program

May I suggerst you reseat all internal connections on your drive? (Power, IDE or what ever) Make sure you are grounded to the case while you do this and you have the power cord disconencted from the wall.

Close up everything and re-connect all the stuff you disconencted.

After you do that, remove the device via the device manager.

Reboot - let windows refind the device. Have the driver CD ready if applicable.

Let me know what happens.

But if you manage to open the DVD ROM clean the dust in it & it will start working agaain but be careful remember that no power should be attached to ROM.

go to the web site,,and look up your model number,,then download the correct model manual,,and print it out.

Trial and error, pushing buttons until I was able to do what I was trying to accomplish. I would suggest more detailed instructions in your manual.
