Post subject: DVD-RW doesn't work Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>hardware (more info?)
Suddenly my Pioneer DVR 108 writer does not recognize DVD+RW and CD-RW discs
anymore.(prompt: this disk is unerasable).This happens in Nero, Power
producer and Studio. Installed a extern Liteon CD writer, same result.
Writing on DVD+R and CD-R discs works fine on both writers. The files on the
RW discs are 100% readable. But I cannot erase them. In another PC they can
be erased. I tried several discs. So I think there is something wrong with
Windows XP Home, and not the writers.
Who can help me?

Put the drive in the other PC and see what happens. I doubt it's XP.

What happens if you try to format the RW media?

A few weeks ago I installed a newer version of Deamon Tools. I de-installed
this and now I can use RW disc's. So I have to find out what's happening but
now I know where I have to look.
Thank you for spending your time for this strange fault.

I think that is just a coincidence and your drive has probably stopped
working. Replace it with another.

He said it works now, since he removed the interfering software.

You are right but I am a pessimist and expect that it will only work for a
short time and then start playing up again. He will then be very confused
and spend 3 more days trying to work out what the problem was before finaly
replacing the drive.

It should keep working as long as he doesn't put DaemonTools on it again!
