Strange problem:
before: Athlon XP 1400 GHz ASUS A7A266 e XP SP1 ou SP2 Ingles + vanilla 350W
power
After: AMD64 3000+ ABIT NF8 XP SP2 PT_BR + good 350W Seventeen

both
HD 40 GB Pri Master C:
CD-RW Sec Mas d:
DVD-RW Sec Slave e:

The problem: My CD-RW is OK, but the DVD-RW have several errors (65 event
IDs 11 during a falure) and I/O error during copy (in my native language:
"O driver detectou um erro de controlador em \Device\CdRom" and "A
solicitação não pôde ser executada devido a um erro do dispositivo de E/S"

I've tried to stop all services, change bios settings, change flat cable,
different copy utilities.update drivers, change drives position on cables
but...

certain files can be copied only in SAFE MODE?!?!?!?

If i try to boot a normal XP system, 70% of the files are copied without
problem, but some files (the same files, ever) have problems in copying.

But why in safe mode, the problem does not appear?

Use the drives in Cable Select with a known good 80 wire 40 pin ribbon
cable.
Blue = Motherboard
Black = Master
Gray = Slave

Make sure the jumpers on both drives are set to cable select.

Most modern motherboards don't really like having the drives set to
master/slave using jumpers.

Because you changed the motherboard and cpu you need to boot from the XP CD
and do a 'repair' install so that XP can correctly identify the new
hardware.
 
Hi, Cari.

The OP did not actually say which Windows version he was/is using. My
impression is that he is continuing to run 32-bit WinXP on the 64-bit AMD
CPU/mobo.

If my impression is correct, then Jerry is right and an "in-place upgrade"
(also called a repair install) should be sufficient. This will reinstall
WinXP itself, redetecting the hardware environment and installing the
correct drivers for the new devices, but will preserve any installed apps
and data. A clean install would wipe out the Registry, requiring
re-installation of the apps. And if the clean install included a reformat,
the data would be wiped out, too.

Flavio, for instructions, see the official version, or MVP Michael Stevens'
version of the same thing:

If you ARE upgrading to WinXP Pro x64 Edition, post back for different
steps. And be sure to see the new newsgroup:

The OS war reinstalled, of course

OK, tanks, i'll check
the OS was reintalled from scratch and the CD* Drives are probably not
configured for Cable Select

I will try it!
 
A friend told me to try to changedriver controller properties, to PIO Mode.
What do you think about?
 
PIO mode is slow, and with a DVD-RW that will significantly impact it's
ability to burn a disc without a buffer under run. You must find out why it
is not being recognized properly; either the cable is bad, the jumpers are
set wrong, or there is a problem with the power connector. Did you check
the cable and jumpers as per my previous post?

If it is a DVD burner, *DO NOT* set it to PIO mode. Please be so kind as to
show this to your friend so that he won't suggest it to someone else in the
future.

Post back an let us know how it goes.
