gorto Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 When I put a blank disk in. The system recognizes that one is puts in, and asks what to do. However when I go to burn it. The drive spins and the light flashes like it is burning, but that is all it does. It keeps doing that until I reboot the system. Is their a .kext that I can use. I tried to search for it on Google, but can't find any thing. My dvd/cd is a SATA Samsung light scribe. The BIOS shows it as TSST Corp CDDVDW SH-S203N. The system profiler shows the drive as the same thing. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/270035-unable-to-burn-a-cddvd/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

gorto Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 It worked fine when I did not have OSX. I will try it, but the thing is. I do not have it set up for dual boot. Do not think that a virtual machine will work, but will try.

gorto Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 I am doing a dual boot with windows xp. I reinstalled the latest firmware. That did not fix the issue. When I burn something with Burn. I get "The disc can’t be burned because because communication between the computer and the disc drive failed (error code 0x80020022)." Googled it, and found out that their is a huge issue with this for regular macs. Guess if I need to burn something. I will just use windows blaw Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/270035-unable-to-burn-a-cddvd/#findComment-1763851 Share on other sites More sharing options...
