Speccy Optical drive module - unknown error message

[wtayo792]

Have version 1.14.288 loaded and on a XP-SP3 computer the optical drive module gives this error message during the scan process.

Optical Drives

Unknown system error: 0x80041004

The drives (2) appear to be working ?? correctly as I can see them in Win Explorer. I would like to be able to see the details in Speccy. Any suggestions?

Did you get this if you use an an earlier version of Speccy?

 

Older versions can be gotten from here on the right of the page

Are there any errors which show up around the same time as you run it in any ofthe Windows Event Viewer areas (system or application?}

 

What make and model are your drives? (info can be found in the device manager)

Have taken the following steps;

Removed Speccy 1.14.288 and reinstalled same - no change

Both opticals are IDE so I changed the ribbon cable (80 connector type) - no change

Changed IDE from Primary to Secondary connector on MOBO, and checked BIOS settings - no change

Researched for any XP System event alerts - there are none

Removed Speccy 1.14.288 and installed 1.13.276 - no change

Ran WinUtilities app version 10.4 and can see both drives fine

 

CDR0 - AOpen 12x DVD-ROM

CDR1 - AOpen Com5232/AAH Pro (combo DVD-ROM/CD writer)

Then perhaps run speccy in debug mode and attach the log here so the devs will see it.
