How to make your internal SCSI CD Recorder work
Hello to all,
Please feel free to pas the below text around should there be anyone using SCSI drive to write CD etc. Have a nice day reading this document...........
In order to make the CD write better and more successfully when using windows 95 to ME is to find the driver in your windows 95 to ME called sparrow.mpd and rename and save it as 'do like this' (also do this for the SCSI driver for your SCSI card). That is the time driver will be able to work properly as the originally installed have a hard time to write any CD which also caused the CD recordable drive to fail (The downloaded new driver is 'this' not 'deis' indication). The other option is to check out the CDDVDinfo file in Microsoft word that teaches how to choose your blanks which will make the writing more successful (most of time Kodak gold, Sony CDR and Mitsui CDR did work quite fine with these SCSI recorders). The other option is to search and look for windows version of ASPI to install the latest version (which the current version I know is 4.71-2). This driver would caused the internal SCSI CDR recordable drive to move and will have a less chance of failure. These are the recommendation to writing CDR with SCSI CD recorder and hope that this information is useful for your reference..........
N/B: The other way to make it work is to reduce the speed of writing and you can also have another option to touch the internal drive parts near to the outside of the open tray with your middle finger portion at the side of your finger nail (top surface). The indication for this portion is actually a very ‘huge’ indication which is ‘like theis’ (after you wipe your hands and fingers on clothes or some may even blow your hands to bring back the original indication of the drive together with this ‘huge’ indication which might make your internal SCSI CD recorder work.
