Also i have read in one forum that switching from ahci to ide in sata mode solved it for one drive, cant check on my box as nothing will boot if i do. All Disks tested where CD-R and DVD-R and DVD-DL in TAO. I even tried Nero4 for linux with no luck.<br>

This sounds like LG would implant bugs to fight<br>
bugs in Windows.<br>

</div>> In xfburn I got these error:<br>

<br>
This answers the question whether libburn is<br>
affected, too. :(<br>
<br>
Was that a CD ? Write mode TAO ?<br>
Afaik, xfurn has a choice button TAO/SAO.<br>

The media is not ready to get written at address<br>
-150, which is the normal start point for SAO.<br>
That would mean the CUE sheet of the SAO session<br>
did not get into effect ... for some reason.<br>
<br>
Richard reported about TAO failure, too.<br>
TAO needs no other preparation than sending a<br>
mode page 5 with write type TAO.<br>
<br>
<br>
What media are affected ? Anything else but<br>
CD-R , CD-RW, DVD-R , DVD-RW ?<br>
<br>
------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
It is hard to imagine how this could get broken<br>
by leaning towards some Windows peculiarities.<br>
<br>
Call me stubborn, but for now i still believe<br>
in a second process reading from the drive.<br>
The effects of the firmware changes would in my<br>
theory be caused by different vulnerability for<br>
disturbance.<br>
<br>
The single-user mode tests would prove or<br>
falsify my theory. Same kernel, same burn<br>
program, but no uncoordinated processes.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
<br>

<br>
</div>One point against my theory.<br>
The host hardware should have few influence.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
<br>

<br>
</div>I will probably return a mad Samsung SH-S223C<br>
and might possibly get an LG for it.<br>
(SH-S223C rev SB02, DVD-RW with multi-session<br>
broken. Not known yet whether systematic or<br>
individual. Elsewise a fine drive.)<br>
<br>
But if i tell the dealer that the LG is even more<br>
broken than the Samsung, then he will not believe<br>
me anything any more.<br>
<br>
There is a surprising wealth of unpleasant drive<br>
behavior recently. Pioneer, LG, Samsung, no brand<br>
seems safe.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
<br>
> I had recently updated the firmware for my DVDRW<br>

<br>
</div>Is there any info why Windows 7 would need a<br>
firmware upgrade of the drive ?<br>
<br>
The MMC usage model is much like client-server.<br>
The computer is the client and the drive is the<br>
server. Both communicate via commands from SCSI<br>
sub-specs MMC, SPC, SBC (regardless whether ATA,<br>
USB, SCSI, SATA).<br>
So the normal thing is (was ?) that both sides<br>
obey the specs and all works well.<br>
<br>
We open sourcers need to find out what's going<br>
on there.<br>

Have a nice day :)<br>
