I will try that next.

[Dorset] New DVD writing error
Hi I have just replaced my old IDE DVD writer with a new Samsung SH-222BB from Novatech. This new one is a SATA drive. At that price I bought 2. I am using K3b to try and write a DVD data disc of photo's, and it fails. the error output is below. Can anyone point me at somewhere to look to resolve this? The old DVD wrote OK when it worked, it just got to the point where it screeched every time I put a CD/DVD in it and wouldn't read.

Re: [Dorset] New DVD writing error
Hi just wondered if you had tried uninstalling your burning software and reinsatalling so the setup had a chance to point to the sata channel rather than the ide channel. just a thought and have you checked that the burner can write the disk type your using (plus or minus) almost every burner made lately can do both but .. you never know Cheers Victor P On Thu, Jun 14, 2012 at 10:17 PM, Ralph Corderoy ra...@inputplus.co.ukwrote: Hi Peter, :-[ CLOSE SESSION failed with SK=5h/CANNOT FORMAT MEDIUM - INCOMPATIBLE MEDIUM]: Wrong medium type Is this a blank disk from old stock that you've had a while?
