MagicMan Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 It could always be faulty if its just spitting out DVD's. I take it you've tried a mixture of original and copied discs? You could always latest ASPI drivers from Adaptec, its a long shot but it may work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovedude Posted February 19, 2004 Author Share Posted February 19, 2004 (edited) it will read Cd-r's retail and copied etc.. but not DVD's i only have retail dvd's so i cant test for backup dvd's.. cant even remember what scsi card it is... havent used for about 2 years lol :unsure: Edited February 19, 2004 by Groovedude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
