| Not sure what is going on, but I have encountered a problem, the first couple disks I burned were awesome. But now, I am unable to burn anything except for coasters... I have tried RICOHJPNR01, CMC (Which originally worked awesome), and Ritek... Nothing is burning good anymore... When I attempt an 8x burn, it goes alright, and then at about 90%, the burn slows to 4x, and then the errors go through the roof and the disk doesn't read properly... I dont understand what could have happened. I tried reverting back to original EEPROM and Firmware of when I got the very good results (US0A) but that didn't work etiher, I have tried US0A, US0F, and even US0G, but nothing is working.. Is this a little bit strange? Shoudl I just exchange the drive? |

| Curious. My burner is also slowing down to 4x towards the end, leading to higher PI errors, but this happened only after I upgraded to GS0H... rdgrimes said something about the running OPC... I wonder what he meant by that, exactly...

| Weird thing is, this just started happening... It didn't happen when I first got the drive. I thought it might be something with one of the firmwares so I tried reverting, but that didn't help... |
| C0deKing was suggesting powering down the drive after firmware changes... (not reboot, but power down...)

| Well, I suppose that I can try that.... If you mean turning the power to the computer off, I believe I have tried that, but I will try again... |
| Well, I am getting it RMA'd through NCIX... I think with the next one I am not even going to touch the firmware or upgrade it at all if it is working... We shall see what happens with that. |
| Hmm. This is indeed a very strange problem. G'luck with the next drive.

| Thats what I thought.. I didn't quite think it was right that all of a sudden I wouldn't be able to burn a readable disk... Especially when I reverted everything back to the firmware and EEPROM of when I got my nice burns/scans.. Oh well... The next one will hopefully be better... lol... |
