After installation of InCD 4.x (system: Win98) this program permanently accesses the hard disk (appr. every 1-2 seconds). I noticed that by the noise of my hard disk and it is indicated by my anti-virus program (f-prot which flashes when it does a scan - now it flashes permanently).

This behaviour will on the one hand produce errors of other programs: the defragmenter of Win98 refuses to work, saying that another program accesses the hard disk. On the other hand I am concerned that it will decrease lifetime of my disk as well as reduce performance of the overall system. I therefore immediatly deinstalled InCD again. Does anyone have any clue why this happens and how to stop it?

I believe this behaviour also occurs on a Win2000 System although I did not know how to check it as this hard disk is more quiet and I have another anti-virus program installed.

The behaviour I described is independent from having the MRW feature enabled or not.

I have experienced the same problem. It is discussed in this thread:

http://www.cdrinfo.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12091

and it seems that the newest version of InCD, 4.1.5.10, solves this particular problem.

(in reply to levich)

Thanks harper for the link.

But the problem is still present in the newest version (InCD 4.1.5.10).

What is so difficult in eliminating this error - and why are there so few people complaining about it??

Cheers

It is the first time a user complains that the new version does *not* fix the issue.

I suggest to try a de-install of InCD, ahead cleantool, then re-install the updated version.

Hi,

I have this problem with the latest InCD 4.3.11.1 (Jan 10, 2005).

The summary below is distilled from C:\WINDOWS\InCD\incderr.log which tries to show that there is a continuous loop of five distinct "SCSI error" messages, each paired with the "e=2988" as long as InCD is active.
The buffer is written to HDD at two-second intervals.

The device prompting the error (LG CD-ROM CRD-8160B) will never be capable of supporting packet [or any other form of] writing :-))

? Please: OPTION NOLOG = "LG CD-ROM CRD-8160B" (or something).

I have used InCD successfully at 32x using the LITE-ON 5232K with Verbatim CD-RW 32x even though I tried to be stupid.
My second operation, after Format, was to Move (not Copy) some important data from HD to CDRW; the machine died half way through.
On re-boot, all the files which had been deleted from HD were on CD and the file that was in progress was complete on both media, as shown by a Compare Utility.
(Very useful, although I note the warnings from this forum that the data could become unreadable at any moment).

Thanks to Admins, Mods and posters for making their experiences available to be found by Goog!ers.

(I'll notify David Burg @ Nero about this posting.)

Deeb, I have a workaround for your issue:

Get the tool from http://www.nero.com/en/InCD_4_ErrorLog.html run it and set the error logging level to Off. (Later you can use the same tool to turn the logging back on if you need to generate a log file to report an issue).

Works very nicely. Thank you.

Perhaps there could be a "Celebrity Member" (e.g.) category.

Celebrity member for which members exactly?

Sorry to take this off topic

Say, a "Junior Member" who holds a Senior position in the company whose product is the topic of discussion ?

Celebrity - being a person of distinction; distinct from another "Junior Member" with a similar post count.

To my thinking, "Junior Member" seems no more respectful than "New Member".

(You still have the star system to grade between unproven and totally reliable.)

I hope this might encourage other product support representatives to face their customers in public.
We're not always hostile and, often, forums like this one can save them time.

Dave

(in reply to emperor)

Well, I do not mind the Junior status. As far as I understand it is related to my post count, so likely once I will have helped enough people here this will evolve.

Btw, I am actually not a support representative. I am a project leader who like to hear the concrete problems his end-users are facing (I don't like that problems exist, but like to know then what I have to make better in the product).

(in reply to deeb)

Yes the user rankings are related to the post count, more posts, the higher ranking
