I just had to RMA my Toshiba drive, and was wandering if anyone else has nay problems with DVDRW amd SHuttles?
I've had my pioneer 105 in my SN45G for months with out any problems
Im using the NEC 2500a with my SB62G2, not had any problems to date. Touch wood!
I have a SN41G2 btw. I am thinking to a Pioneer 107, the Plextor or the NEC one currently cheap @ blankdiscshop.
I have the SN41G2 as well as my SB62G2, its got my old NEC 1300 or NEC 1100... think its the 1100, burn's DVD and CD's without a problem.
No probs with my NEC ND1300a so far *touch wood*

No Probs with Sony DWU14A in a SN45G.
If you have an AMD NVIDIA based Shuttle some people have reported problems using the IDE driver supplied by NVIDIA. Try using the original driver supplied by Microsoft.

My SN41G2 is indeed a NVIDIA driver I believe. I will try that out - thankyou very much.
Got a SN41G2 and yes i've had problems.. with my DVD reader/CD writer and
also my DVDRW.
There is an issue with Nvidia drivers, had to roll back to a earlier driver
set to get back to normal.
My symtoms was when I tried to write a disk in either drive it would BSOD
reading was fine just creation of media caused death.
no prob with my sn41g2 & nec1300b.
My Pioneer 106 is fine no probs.
Yet I had one odd case with a DVD-RW which it wouldn't read so I couldn't erase it although all my other PC and DVD players could read it. I installed ME (deual boot with XP pro Sp1) and that read the disc weird.

Below is a screenshot of the current IDE driver I have. I presume it is the top Nvidia one I have to remove. However, I uninstalled it, but when I booted te PC back up, it loaded it automatically again?
How do I completely eradicate it?
You should be able to right click -> properties and then remove driver, i think that will remove it from the database as well

No, that merely removes it. When rebooting, it loads it back up again???
Is the problem you are having invole buffer underruns?
When I first got my NEC 1300A I had problems until I checked the settings of the IDE controller in device manager. For some reason when I first installed the drive it had set it to PIO transfer and not UDMA. As I understand it this is a common fault with nforce 2 boards (I had the same thing on my epox nforce 2 rig). Check you have UDMA set rather than PIO or BIOS / Auto.
Hope that helps.
PS, this only seems to effect CD / DVD drives and not HDs.
