HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH70N will not write to blank DVD discs, but it will read all the OEM and the previous DVD I created.

When I check the properties of the device there is a message that says: Windows does not start a related device driver. To learn more, click on the driver tab, click Driver Details. Go to the driver tab and Driver Details reveal nothing.  When I try to save a blank DVD disc, the disc spins for a while and then I get a message that the disc is not recordable or it is not present in the drive.  I tried to uninstall the drive and let Win 7 reinstall the disc after that I reload.  I also noticed that the player goes to a CD player when I try to record a DVD disc.

I have since fixed the problem by using msconfig, I disabled the iTunes program. This solves the problem completely.  I had read somewhere that iTunes can interfere with optical drives.

Hi, Frank Keller,.

Glad to know that the problem has been resolved. If you have any questions about Windows in the future, please let us know. We will be happy to help you.

  • Based on file format is not write to file, if there is an error defined by the user?

    While using the function in file to create a text file of some test results, I've noticed that if there is an error format on the error stream VI seems to work fine, but the Format of the file function is not actually write data to the file. I never noticed this behavior in Labview on any another function while if there is an error in this function does not work. As a general rule, if I don't want to run a section of the code when there is a mistake I have to surround themselves with a case statement and run the error stream in the case selector ignore.

    I've noticed this in a test application where I generate set errors when certain failures occur during my test, but I'd like when even the application to write my log file no matter if there is an error of no. In this case if my defined errors occur it does not write a log file. I deliberately to clear all errors before calling my VI of logging that I really don't want to do.

    So my question is why this behavior is present in the Format based on file? If it is expected that behavior are there other features that this happens with that I don't know everything?

    I have attached a VI that illustrates this behavior.

    The vast majority of the functions with an error to not not run if an error is present. In General, if a function runs with an error (i.e. close VISA), noted in the help it works even with a mistake.

  • Error: "Windows could not complete the format" when you try to write to blank DVDs

    I get this error when you try to copy files to a blank DVD.  I am trying to drag and drop files into the dvd player and after a small roar, the dvd ram drive stops and the error message.  Then the drive no longer recognizes blank dvd inside.  I am running Vista 32 bit and my dvd ram is a matshita dvd - ram uj880as ata.  I tried to switch to the microsoft 'FixIt' site, but the problem is not resolved.  I think that the report mentioned that the reader could recognize not writable or something to that extent.  The player can play DVDs fine, however.  Is there a solution to this problem by replacing the dvd ram drive?

    Hello

    Have you tried to close all programs and then insert the disc to see what is happening? Try a slower
    speed or mastered format. Have you added any burning new software lately - these tend to compete
    for resources and can interfere with each other.

    Should which CD or DVD format I use?
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/which-CD-or-DVD-format-should-I-use

    ====================================

    You have disk problem as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (burn CD & DVD and CD and DVD read).
    Therefore, it is not unusual for 1 or 2 rooms with not so work that others do it properly.

    Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    CD have a tolerance + - and you can write on the outside edge.

    Try this troubleshooting:

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  • DVD writer does not recognize 'NEW' blank DVD - r (Windows XP)

    Hello

    I have a question that has been annoying me a lot during the last few weeks, as follows...

    I have a Dell Optiplex GX620 computer is running Windows XP service pack 3, it has a cd/DVD burner in this model (HL-DT-ST DVD +-RW GWA4164B), I used to be able to burn CDs and DVDs fine, so please respond with lol 'maybe your drive doesn't burn DVDs' as you can see in the model # it's a DVD +-RW drive.

    But my problem is the following... for some reason the DVD burner does not detect the 'NEW' blank DVD - R, there is no problem of detection of blank CD - R disc and I can burn fine on the CD - R. But for some reason it does not detect blank DVD?

    When I put one in the drive, I don't get the popup asking what I want to do etc, or to go to WORKSTATION and look a the drive it shows no media present.

    I have Nero Platinum 15 installed in my burning software, which has a function of DISK INFORMATION, which also shows that 'no disk in drive '.

    I have re installed Nero...

  • How the tags are stored and then backed up?  Don't want to do all this work if a system failure and the need to start over with saved photos will be all the work of marking saved.  Or IIR/when Lightroom is so more suitable or an option as the next photo p

    Backblaze in particular, but it would be for any backup or future software I guess.

    Tags are stored in the file in your catalog. If you want to have them available after a disk crash, you should make regular, automated backups of your catalog on a different physical disk files. You can enable this in Lightroom via settings-> General-> Backup catalog. Note: you should always take backups of your photos, this feature in Lightroom doesn't have backups of your photos.

    If at some point you consider moving away from Lightroom, you can also write tags to the photos themselves (or in the case of RAW for the XMP sidecar files). This can be done by selecting all the photos and metadata-> saves the metadata of files (Note: this will take a lot of time if you have selected a large number of photos). You can also turn on the option to automatically catalog settings-->--> write metadata changes automatically to XMP. Any tags written via this method is readable by any other photo app that I know.
