HP 8100 Quit working under Win2k but works under WinME

Recommended Posts

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

Maybe I missed it somewhere in there, but could you please state what drives you have on which controllers, and whether master or slave?

Man, I just don't have any good answers for you (but maybe someone else does?).

 

That's about the way I have mine setup, except mine are:

 

Maxtor 30GB as Master on Primary IDE Channel

Maxtor 8Gb as Slave on Primary IDE Channel

HP 8100i as Master on Secondary IDE Channel

Creative 6x/24x DVD as Slave on Secondary IDE Channel

 

And everything works fine, of course (doncha just hate it when someone says, "Mine works!"). Using Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4.02d.

 

You might check to see if they're set to use "DMA if Available" under Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager>IDEATA/ATAPI Controllers.

 

Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

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?

hmmm... did u try pulling the slave drives to see if it works?

 

my guess would be, it's the creative drive. that drive is evil incarnate. i myself had one. along with... about 5 other people i know. and they all broke. in different ways, but they broke.
