I've been trying for the better part of two hours to get a Mitsumi 4x8, model CR-4801TE running on my system, but with little luck.
Every time I start burning, no matter the burning program, or the options selected (speed, DAO/DAO96/TAO) the burn process freezes at anywhere between 3% and 10%.
I've updated both Nero and Alcohol, tried different speeds and modes, tried different kinds of media and different types of files (avi, ogg, mp3) and any combination of the above with no luck.
The firmware on the drive is 2.03, which is the most recent (if you can call 1998 recent). The versions of Nero and Alcohol I'm using are the most recent, too. My Win2k is also completely up to date.
The drive will read CDs just fine. It just won't write them w/o dying.
I'm running this as a slave drive, on the same chain as my DVD-ROM drive (an LG drive). My motherboard is a DFI NF2 Ultra Infinity w/ the 11/28 Hellfire BIOS. Processor is an AMD M-Barton 2500+ @ 2500Mhz (12.5*200). I'm also running 1024 MB of RAM.
If anybody could shed some light on this, it would most definately be appreciated.
