Lewis, Some time ago I repartitioned the harddisk on my TP43p, erased all traces of XP and have since been running eCS 1.2MR. With 1.2MR, I have come closer to being able to burn DVDs (CDs have always worked) on the machine but am not quite there -- I can copy large files, over several Gbs in total, to the DVD but I cannot finalize them. RSJ becomes unresponsive and with nothing else running, CPU utilization is just below 1.0%. Thus, I went back to your e-mails from May (see below) and see that our CONFIG.SYS files are different (we also have slightly different Matshita drives) but I don't think the problem lies there. A couple of questions for you: * Why are you using the JJSCDROM.DMD driver? Did eCS install it or did you install it later? If the latter, why? Also, did you remove something? * I don't have BASEDEV=DANIATAP.FLT /EJ /A:1 /U:0 /TYPE:ZWL /RSJ, only BASEDEV=DANIATAP.FLT without any flags at all. Again, did the system install the above or did you install it later? If so, why? Did you remove something? Many thanks.
