Re: Buffer Underrun Errors
Hi Marc. I will try that. There are some things that are weird though.
I never had this problem with 8.5.1 so I tried booting from an 8.5.1 drive but the problems continued. I'll look for an extension problem.
I don't think it's the cabling because up until I changed to 8.6 and changed media types I had no problems at all. I checked SCSI ID's and they are fine. I have a very short cable, the CD writer is my only device and it is terminated.
I had no problems using TDK discs but at the same time I upgraded to 8.6, I switched to Maxell. These discs seem really picky. I started a burn on the Maxell and a couple of seconds later I quit the burn. I couldn't use the disc again. I don't remember the TDK's doing that.
I'll try the burns in the test mode. I know it's the same except it doesn't actually write but I only get the underruns when I do a write, not in the test mode. The test mode always works fine.
Oh yeah, My extensions are only 8.6 base extensions and the digi ones. I turned off appletalk but this didn't help.
I'll take your suggestions and see what happens.
Thanks,
Steve
