what speed are you trying to burn at? don't quote me on this, but i'm sure there's issues with trying to burn DVDs at fast speeds on low memory systems. have you tried burning at 2x? just to see if the thing actually works? |

do you have access to another PC, one with more RAM? if so, see if you can just test out your drive on that machine. if it works on the alternate machine, you need more RAM. the only thing I can think of that could be causing it is the low memory that you have. Windows XP is a bastard for eating up memory anyways, even when it's just sitting there doing nothing. i hope you can get it sorted out mate |

||||||||

ok i have 2 128 sticks of ram in my pc. both sticks work on thier own but together it still reads the ram as 128 so im really confused |

one of the slots on your motherboard must be fucked then.......did you try the RAM modules in alternating slots? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
yer maybe the other 2 are fucked |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just tried the other slots they all work fine i really dont get it |
||||||||
|

|
|
wouldnt be something to do with the bios would it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it shouldn't be.... are the RAM modules the same bus speed? if they use different bus speeds, then you wont be able to have them both in your machine at the same time - my friend had this problem too and he could only use his single 512MB module |
||||||||

|
|
i think they r both 133 but maybe not i dunno im gonna buy 512 stick anyway just hope thats y my burner is being crap |
