I'm working with the latest cdrecord win32 alfa version (V1.11a04 24/6/01).
The Mkisofs and cygwin1.dll are also the latest version.
Statistically, only 1 out of 4 records attempts succeed.
Per the other 3, I'm encountering SCSI error "write_g1 0x8 (Busy)".
This error always comes up between recording of the 1 to 14 Mb.
Once it passes 14Mb with no error, it will complete the record successfully
(Regardless of ISO file size).
The problem occurs in: Dummy or real mode, BurnFree on or off, Speed ranges
4 to 12.
Some other CD record programs are working OK (EasyCD, DirectCD ...).
Hereby computer details:
Computer: DELL Precision 330 (Pentium 4 1.5 Ghz).
Operating System: Windows NT 4.0 + Service Pack 6.
SCSI controller: Adaptec 29160N
ASPI layer: Adaptec ASPI Version 4.60.
Hereby operation details:
