DMA Driver Error / CRC Error

Hi,

I'm new here. just joined the forum today. I have this problem which I have never encounter before. Hope all the experts here could help me out.

I've recently assembled my new PC with help from a friend. I have 1 DVDROM drive (LG GCR8163B) and 1 DVD-Writer (LG GS-4166B).
I tried to burn some data from hard disk using Nero 7.0.8.2 and I got the following error message: "DMA Driver Error. CRC Error". I also tried dvd to dvd copy but got the same error.
My DVD Writer is Primary Master and DVDROM Primary slave. I swap them around and still get the same error. I then unplug my DVDROM leaving only the DVD Writer. This apparently worked.
I also did some experimenting by going into device manager, ATAPI CONTROLLER and changing all primary and secondary transfer mode to PIO. This work but problem is great slow down in speed.

Hope somebody here can help me out. I don't want to have only dvd writer working while living out my fully working dvdrom idle. HELP!!

Here's my PC set up :

OS: Windows XP Pro with SP2
CPU: Intel Core 2 Dual 6300 1.86 ghz
Mainboard: Intel DP965LT
Memory: 2 MB Cosiar DDR2 667mhz
Graphics: Elsa Nvidia Geforce 7600GS PCI Express
Sound: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi
Harddisk: 500Gb Seagate x 1 unit (SATA)
300Gb Seagate x 1 unit (IDE)
300Gb Maxtor x 1 unit (IDE)
IDE PCI Controller Card with 2 primary and 2 secondary chanel
(I need this card as I have 2 IDE harddisk from my old system but the main board only has 1 ide port).
DVDROM : LG GDR8263B
DVD-RW : LG GS-4166B

Hope the above will help.

Thanks.

Regards
Ben

Hello ! i'm french so i have a bad english

.

I have the same computer ( Intel E6300 dualcore, 1GO ddr2 5400mhz, wi xp s2, and a DvD-ram and rom LG ! )

i have DMA driver-error, CrC error with 4x writer !. I use the verbatim cd's.
I think the writer is f***ed up or nero is bugged with the dualcore or LG writer.

just one question: this is work when you leaving your dvdrom ?

I later discovered that my LG DVD Writer was faulty and subsequently bought a SONY DVD Writer as replacement. Now all is fine.
