| Hi - I have nero 6 [downgraded from 8] and I cannot burn to dual layer discs! I've followed some threads, and have found out that I need to enable DMA - not exactly sure what this means, but apparently it should solve my problem. I followed some instructions which said to go to device manager and open the tree IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers, but it's not listed!
I have tried to update the firmware - I downloaded it from the Optiarc website, but when I try and run the .exe file, it says that it can't find the drive.
I can play DVD movies from my drive [dual layer discs] and I can also read dual layer discs that have been burnt using the same program on a different computer. I'm running XP Professional x64.
I've found that a lot of other people have this same issue, but no one has posted a solution on any forum! HELP!!!
and before anyone asks, I have a DVD +/- DL RW drive. (the Optiarc 5170s].
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
dRolan.
All the best,
dRolan

| Welcome to the forum
First check in the system BIOS,usually under 'Integrated Peripherals',see if everything there checks out.
Check for driver/chipset driver and BIOS updates on your motherboard manufacturers website.
If you're not sure of the make and model of your motherboard you could download and run these utilities.

| Thanks for the reply! I checked the BIOS already, but I may have a driver missing - I have a Dell computer which came with Vista Ultimate x64 which I uninstalled to put XP x64 on and when I reinstalled all the drivers, I may have missed one out which could be the cause of all my problems!
I'll post again once I've had a look at all the drivers.
Thanks again.
All the best,
dRolan
