Endimion · July 23rd, 2002

I've investigated some info of the drive... is not too old.

Writer Name: Sony CRX 120E
Device-ID: SONY CD-RW CRX120E
Interface: IDE
Writing Speed CD-R: 1x, 2x, 4x
Writing Speed CD-RW: 2x, 4x
Buffer Memory: 2048
Write Index Marks: Yes
Write UPC-Code: Yes
Write ISRC-Code: Yes
Read Recorder Buffer Occupancy: Yes
Burn 80-Minutes CD-Rs: Yes
Burn 90/99-Minutes CD-Rs: No. (The CD-Rs can only be written up to the normal capacity (about 80 minutes!)
Overburning: No
CD-R Capacity Test: No
Read Manufacturer Code: Yes
Write CD-Text: Yes
Leave CD Open (Session-at-Once): Yes
Burn-Proof: No
Burn Audio CD-Rs: Yes
Track 1, Index 1 > 00:03:00: No
Read ATIP Information: Yes

So, it SHOULD read anything... Zero MH is right, it doesn't matter if Windows can't read it, you can go to the CDR PlugIns section in NGEmu and download the right one for your drive, you should try (in this order) CDR Mooby, Pete's PSX ASPI CDR and TSC MSCDEX, I think you're having trouble with the ASPI drivers in your machine... OR maybe your CDRW can't read RAW data. I think the last full ePSXe Setup (the one with plugins) have a very good ASPI installer.

And.. I'm not American too... well.. kinda ... I'm SouthAmerican... the USA guys like to call themselves "Americans" hehe.. look the map guys!!! America is BIG!!! is not only USA!.
