I have a HP 8100 CDRW. A few weeks ago I could no longer record CDs. This came shortly after I installed a slave drive (fujitsu - see below) on the primary ide bus and a 48x CDROM as slave on the secondary bus. Win2k sees the CDRW and reads from it fine but both CDRWIN and EasyCD Creator 4.02 will not burn. I tried different cables, unhooked all other devices and even reinstalled Win2k. I put the drive in a WinME machine I have here and it worked flawlessly which means the CDRW is not broken, obviously. Also, the drive WAS working fine under Win2k a few weeks ago. The error CDRWIN spits back at me is: "Error: 'START DAO RECORDING' command failed on device 0:1:0. Cuesheet was rejected by the CDROM recorder". This happens when I try and burn any cd. This is not an issue with the file being to big or whatever. EasyCD Creator Spits back some CDDB error I do not have directly in front of me Aspichk responds that I have v4.60 (1021) properly installed. It is not an ASPI issue. Any advice would be appreciated. My system stats are as follows: Asus P3B-F P3-600EB Slot1 128MB PC133 RAM (2x64mb) STB Velocity4400 16MB TNT Video card HP CD-Writer+ 8100i CDRW Creative 48x CDROM Maxtor 9100D 10GB HDD - C & D drive Fujitsu 4GB HDD Microsoft Intellimouse Pro Microsoft Natural Elite USB Keyboard Mitsubishi DiamondPro 900u 19" Monitor 3Com 3C905-TX (for LAN) Kingston LNE100TX NIC (for DSL modem) Creative SoundBlaster Live Running Windows2000 v5.00.2195 w/ SP1 [This message has been edited by aphex187 (edited 06 October 2000).]

Thanks anyways. I'm wonderng if there is some way to test the secondary IDE channel on this motherboard. With all the different things I have tried I'm wondering if there is something physically wrong with this motherboard? Anyone had any problems with the Asus P3B-F?

Its setup as follows: Maxtor 10GB HDD - Master on Primary Bus Fujitsu 3GB HDD - Slave on Primary Bus HP 8100 CDRW - Master on Secondary Bus Creative 48x - Slave on Secondary Bus Thanks
