Your post doesn't make any sense. Please attempt to rewite it in simple english terms.

What does fiicly mean? Does "bourners" mean "burners" instead?

Are you using recording software that came with the drive?

Ok sorry there are a lot of miss types.
basically when i burn a cd/dvdv there is no information on them and i get a disk is not formated, windows cannot read from disk, the disk might be corrupted, or could be using a format not compatible whit windows. And the software i am using is Nero and also the win xp, whit same results, my drives are not problem because i already try whit a external read/write usb cd and work fine
Thanks

again....Are you using recording software that came with the drive? What version is it?

No, I got nero ver 7 from a friend I already install it twice.
thanks

Does your friend have the same recorder drive? If not then his oem software will not work on another drive that's a different brand or model.

Did his software come with his drive or did he buy a retail version?

It is not a that software i also try it whit freeware software and the resukt were the same.
Waht i did was change the transfermode on the ide channle (to PIO only) were i have my cd roms/dvd and it is working I made 2 cd and dvd copys and until now they are working, but now my question is what will this do? changing the transfermode

Thanks

Changing transfer mode changes the speed....

well speed is not and issue right now so there is not going to be a problem for now i will try to make different combinations on the transfer rate or speed
