Somebody please help me!
My XP/SP2 crashes when I put a scratched or hardly readable CD into my DVD-RW drive and want to copy the content of it to my hard drive. The drive starts to read the CD, and after a few second the reading speed starts to fall gradually near 0 kb/sec, and the OS crashes.
When I just want to play an *.avi file with a videoplaying software directly from the same CD - without copying! - the OS doesn't crash!
Sometimes the OS completely crashes, even the mouse doesn't move, so I have to push the reset button, and sometimes the blue screen appears and shows this message:
MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION
...
Technical information:
*** STOP: 0x0000009C (0x00000004, 0x80545FF0, 0xB2000000, 0x00070F0F)
Interesting things:
- When I start to copy from a problematical CD and the OS crashes after 1-2%, after reboot the whole 700MB file is on the hard drive. It is unusable of course.
- When I connect an old CD-rom drive in addition (to the secondary slave IDE channel), it can copy the problematical CD to the hard drive (it is true that it reads very slowly), but it doesn't make my OS crash...
Config:
- ASUS K8N MB
- AMD Sempron 3000+ proc.
- SAMSUNG 3200 2x256 MB memory
- SAMSUNG 250 GB hard drive - primary master
- MOBIL RACK - primary slave
- PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-110D - secondary master
- ATI RADEON 9250 video
- CHIEFTEC 400W
Why don't I get simply the "Can't read CD" message instead of crashing???
What is wrong in my computer?
- The PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-110D? (Can it drag itself to an endless loop?)
- The NForce3 250 IDE driver? (But it works fine with my CD-ROM drive)
Please help!
