I’m back with more problems…
I have recently upgraded my system to the K8N Neo Platinum Edition (nForce3 250Gb chipset). I have an AMD64 3200+ running at stock speeds, 1 Gig of Corsair TwinX1024-3200LLPT running at the stock (via SPD) settings of 2-2-2-6, the same Optical drives as before one LiteOn 16x DVD Player and one Plextor PX-708A DVD Burner but I have now upgraded to firmware 1.07. My System is Windows XP Pro with SP2 v.2149 which has been slipstreamed onto my setup disk. All my hard drives are Serial ATA drives only, Maxtor and Seagate and two Raptors. I DO NOT have my sound card (Audigy2 ZS) installed as of yet so I dont know if that could be what is wrong. I have nForce drivers installed but they are the ones previous to the July 19th released drivers which I will be installing here shortly. I am currently using DVD Cloner II for backing up.
OK, here is what is happening. Ever since I have upgraded I have not been able to sucessfully back up a DVD. I am only a quarter of the way done but now all backups are failing. They seem to work at first but after 10 maybe 30 or so chapters into the movie it freezes. I at first suspected my DVD Player (Sony) was at fault but it also freezes when played back with both my LiteOn and Plextor drives, and at the same exact identicle spot. I do not know what to do about it. I am not willing to give up on my efforts (as of yet) to protect my investment. But it is becoming more pain than gain. Can someone anyone who has knowledge about this stuff help me out please. I have purchased half a dozen burning softwares and I am afraid to continually keep throwing away DVD coasters…
I do not know where to go from here…
