| 206362 | 2004-01-16 23:33:00 | There is only a tick in the box for DMA (no mention of PIO), I tried it, rebooted and still the same problem. Let me just say, THANK YOU, to all you guys for the effort you are obviously making on my behalf. I REALLY appreciate it. I promise if I ever get this sorted out I will post the details. |

| 206363 | 2004-01-19 08:46:00 | One small step for man I installed Nero 6.0.0.13, and was able to copy a cd to a 700mb CDR. Feeling really good, I tried burning a single file, still no joy. Mitsubishi not able to offer much, suggested "Remove the IDE controllers under device manager, and let Windows re-detect them." Does anybody have any thoughts on this, I am a little wary of making changes which might prove disasterous. Would it help if I posted the fault log from nero? |

| 206364 | 2004-01-22 06:27:00 | OK I give in. I have decided to reinstall my operating system. Looking around on the internet, it seems that this is the only solution which has worked for others with the same problem. I will post when I get up again after hopefully solving the problem. |

| 206365 | 2004-01-22 11:39:00 | > " ATAPI CD-R/RW 6x4x30 COULD NOT PERFORM FIXATION" that error only happened to me once - when i was using a really old 10x CD-RW, that - belive it or not i found in the back of a bus. (not scratched much either). that particlular CD worked for quite a while, but occasionally would stuff up and let nothing but my computer read and write it. just before the CD-RW seemed to have totally died - nero gave me the Fixation error, but it cant have been my drive - it is a new 52x/24x/52x Cyberdrive that can even burn 99minute Cd's without problems, so it must have been the CD-RW. although i dont know what the hell i would do either if i had your problem. |

| 206368 | 2004-01-22 18:49:00 | Your machine and the "other machine" are they using the same operating system? Could be that your windows explorer is reading things as 1k = 1024b whereas the other system maybe reading 1k as 1000b Can someone do the math to see if i'm right |
