jhg Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I've noticed that after upgrading from 7.0 to 7.5, if I reboot with a partially-filled Retrospect backup DVD in one of my two drives, the boot process spins up the drive and gets hung trying to read from it. If I manually eject the DVD the boot process continues normally. I've even tried disabling boot-from-DVD in the BIOS, but it still spins up the drive and hangs at the same place. Has something fundamental changed in how Retrospect formats DVD+R media that would cause this? My system is based on an Intel D975XBX2 motherboard with the latest BIOS updates (1/14/2008).

jhg Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I also checked the firmware levels on the drives and both are current. Drive E: Panasonic DVR-112D firmware 1.24 Drive F: Panasonic DVR-110D firmware 1.41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 The Retrospect disk is a non-finalized DVD. Your hardware is not handling non-finalized disks very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
