Hi there all, i did a quick search on google and you guys came up with a lot of problems simular to mine. I have the LG "HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GSA-H55N" burner. it has been working fine for ages. I installed a new master drive at the weekend and now the little bugger will only burn DVDs and not CDRs. I did have this problem for about a month before my new drives and was unable to fix it then too. It's odd, it will burn the DVD just fine, but not CDRs. I;ve tired 3 different brands too. My computer is fast enough so there is no worries there. I am currently updating NERO7 to see if that makes any difference. Is there a known problem or fix for this? Thanks for your help.

Damn I have a same problem too.
I've already searched about this topic in other forums
. But still none has the solution..

This is most weird thing
sometimes I could burn a cd
but most of the time The DVDRW couldn't finished the cd, It failed at random
times, sometimes It failed in the beginning but sometimes in the end,
but sometimes It succeed of course It was rarely happened

I managed to burn 2 of my cds( It was sony's ) But the others have failed many times.

had anyone has a same problem??
any idea How to fix this???

in the end i just bought a new burner, it was a lot easier. I belive the old one was f*cked as the new one works fine now.

yeah I'll buy the pioneer one, tomorrow morning.

I think the problem is The LG H55N couldn't get the Power well,
The fluctuation of the Voltage was not stabled until Its damaging Its self
'Cause I could finish 2 or 3 cds on my first day trying this. After a while The other was just coaster
pretty interesting stuff Its suicide!!!

If The Power Supply is good enough providing The System something like this shouldn't has happened

but why It didn't affect dvd only cd??? hmmm
<well just don't thinking too much, buy a new one tomorrow!!>
