OH FOR THE LOVE OF PETE!!!!
Ok boys and girls.. i guess i will have to sit all of you down and teach you people about something that has been an issue with XP since it was in BETA form...
BIONIC_TUNA (and the rest of you guys who dont know what it means to READ about XP and the piece of crap that it is!!!)
XP DOES NOT DO ISO'S !!!! i will only say it 1 time..
there are few things you need to do.. first off stop listening to these guys and just read what i am about to say.. the rest of you pay attention too...
1) since beta form it has been known that XP does not handle ISO images.. there is a special utility to bring the ISO aspect of recording to winXP but you got to download it and it is something that someone somewhere made.. but it works.. try cdrsoft.cc under downloads/cdr tools...
2) You HAVE to disable the cd burning aspect of XP if your gunna use something like NERO.. or any other 3rd party burtning program.. again tweakxp would have instructions on how to do that....now if you like adaptec then leave the XP burning program alone cause thats about how good it is.. in otherwords ITS JUNK!!!.. it has also been known since beta form that Microsoft integrated a copy protection protection scheme (that is not a type o ) into XP so that copying games/programs would be nice and hard.. again.. disabling the XP burning program should take care of it but thats no guarentee..
3)
well you already did 3 by getting the NERO update for XP
4) make your images which i assume is gunna be an ISO, with ISO BUSTER,, i dont wanna hear any crap talk about that program cuz everyone of you who are reading this knows its the best ISO program out there... then if you want to make a cd from the ISO.. just burn it with NERO..
This is not a hardware
4) if you are needing to use fast error skip then your not burning files for your lan party.. YOUR BURNING A GAME WITH AT LEAST SAFEDISK V1 or 2 on it.. and because you posted this on the 15th of Jan.. i would say your either trying to burn Medal of Honor or Return to Castle Wolfenstien... am i wrong.. no?.. then why are you trying to burn FILES to an iso.. thats just crazy.. there is absolutely no need to do this.. NO ONE in a lan party will be able to crap with an iso but download the whole thing.. and then what.. they need to unpack it to a file.. or burn the image to CD to ge tthe files.. by then the party is over..
5) updating the ASPI layer is an idea,,, but illtell ya from XPerience.. DONT.. it screwed up MY XP when i did it.. that is after about 3 times of trying it and it telling me that it could not install it. i dont remember the error i just know that i DID download the ASPI for XP.. so be careful..

Also. how long are you letting the iso burn at 0% .. uhm hello.. again here is an issue we have all known about for how many years now.. if it sits at 0% for a while let the friggin thing sit.. my god.. if it sits for an hour at 0% then id say your screwed..

you guys need to go to tweakxp and READ cuz XP is not Windows 98 nor Windows 2000.. Microsoft did things with XP that is causing havok for people like us.. and you know what i mean by that...

im sorry if i sound like a jerk but i read Tuna's posting and NEW RIGHT AWAY what the problem was.. and then i sat here and read about you guys leading this poor chap on a wild goose chase all over his system..
that LiteOn burner you got is top notch Tuna.. leave it be.. although i will say this.. and dont ask how i know.. i just know.. LiteOns are causing issues in XP.. so you might want to stick to the message boards and look for people having problems with liteon cd burners.. ill chk when i get back to work and see for sure what the issue was and post back here my findings..
ONCE AGAIN... ITS XP.. always has been the problem and always will be..ITS JUNK!!!
stick to Win2k or windows 98 if you want to get anything done Tuna..
