[headshotnewb]

rite lads and ladess's lol first off brand new system:

xp2400 cpu
winxp
nec 1300a 4x dvd rw
512mb ddr
120gb hdd
and a 16x dvd drive

basicaly i was trying to copy one of my dvds to work out how to do it and when i installed nero i used dvd decrypt to get the info and shrink to make it smaller then when i try to burn it in either shrink or nero i get power calibration error, no if i used intervideo dvdcopy 2 it burned fine and i made a backup of a dvd allworked ok. but the trail ran out.

ive done some research and people try to blame the media to what ur writing onto now that cant b the case in this cos it has worked im using the yellow datawrite dvd disks. a 350w psu

anyhelp or information please reply or email dale.miles@btinternet.com

Power callibration is a media issue.Try writing it at a slower speed.I have some media that will give this error at 4x but will work at 2x.

cheers ill give it a go,

even tho the media has 1x 2x and 4x written on the disk?

yeh shrink was set to burn on maximum speed so i notched it down to 2x and its burning as we speak

next time ill try 4x (speed of the burner)

cheers
