Troubleshooting

The “Buffer Underrun” error message is displayed.

If your CD writing software supports the Buffer Underrun Protection, you must activate the Buffer Underrun Protection. For more details, refer to the documentation that came with your CD writing software.

For more effective writing, and to avoid causing “Buffer Underrun,” try the following:

Lower the writing speed setting.

Create an image file of the CD on the computer’s hard disk.

Optimize the hard drive (Defragment the drive).

When writing, close other applications (including screen savers, etc.).

Turn hard disk power management off.

Select “Sync data transfer” for the transfer mode setting of the SCSI devices, such as a hard drive, or a CD-ROM drive, etc.

For IDE devices, select “DMA” for the setting of transfer mode.

Deactivate the Active Desktop (if you are using Internet Explorer 4 or later).

Close residential software.

Make sure the trouble does not stem from your CD writing software by referring to the documentation that came with it.

Notes

If there is a slower device connected between the host computer and CRW2200IX drive, the data transfer between CRW2200IX drive and the host computer will be slowed, which may cause a failure in writing a CD.

Errors can occur if you knock or move the CRW2200IX drive while it is writing to disc.

Unstable operations.

Do you have several kinds of CD writing software installed to the same system? Such a situation may cause a conflict, resulting in unstable operations.

Has dust or dirt collected on the disc surface?

If so, clean the disc surface using an air spray or by wiping using a lint-free cloth. Remember to wipe the surface in a motion perpendicular to the edge of the disc. Be careful not to scratch it.

Other symptoms

Your CD writing software does not recognize the CRW2200IX drive.

That software you are using may not support the drive. Consult the software manufacturer for compatibility with the CRW2200IX drive.
