I Need Help !!!

I recently bought hoster and went out and bought a Plextor PX 716UF hoping that I could load CD Gs on to my laptop. I also spent thousands on brand new discs but the Plextor only reads half of them. Is there anything I am doing wrong ?

All the Cds are brand new but the Plextor seems to be able to import some of them. I have loads of discs that I can't put on to the hoster system. I'm not sure if it's the Plextor or Hoster or if I can change any settings that might help.

When I press the add tracks to import the Plextor starts to read the CDGs but it just makes a churning noise and nothing happens. I would understand if the discs were damaged or dirty but they are perfect. They play no problem on another CD player.

I bought the same plextor off of ebay. And I have the exact problem. My guess is the plextor, because I only paid $50 for it. That was just a chance I took.

This drive is supported, this is the drive that we are shipping.

It sounds as if you have discs with the MediaCloq security.

What are the exact discs that you are having a problem with? Please post the numbers, others will then tell you if this is a disc with security on it.

Take a close look at the center hub. Sometimes they will say if they are copy protected with media clog.

All the discs are sunfly. I rang the Plextor support unit and they told me to download the latest plextor software 1.8 and it working perfectly now. Thanks for all your help.
