BMWJ17 Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Ok I burned the CDDB using NERO on a CD-RW now I put the disk in and I let it update I left the car in garage and waited about 10:00 Min and went back to garage to check on progress and it said Error Upgrade Failed. So before putting my fist through My Z-1 I ejected the CD-RW from it and went inside and Found a Brand new CD-RW and burned it again new disk and all I put it in the Z-1 and it went through the normal bull crap and asked if I would like to upgrade so I acknowledged and it Started and Picked up where the Last CD-RW left Off at %53 Completion and Immediately put up the error Screen again. So I came back inside and "Re-Downloaded" the CDDB from Pioneer and Burned it to yet another CD-RW only to have it again Register at %53 an fail again. So I went ahead and "hit The Reset Button" on the Z-1 and it agin gave the same results. Upon these results I then push the Reset Factory Default Settings and Received the same results. Any suggestions? ???? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ducatiboy Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Well BMWJ17 did say he was using nero. I used that myself. I noticed the he was using CD-RW's. I used regular CD-R's. If it keeps stopping at 53% you might have bad files, or it might be a problem with the CD-RW, try a regular CD and burn it slow. Make sure you do the cd format as listed on the pioneer web site.

03Aviator Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I think DB has something with the CD-R vs CD-RW. Also, are you finalizing the CD after you burn it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMWJ17 Posted August 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Yeah I have allowed the Disk to finalize. I think my next step will be to try a CD-R in lieu of the RW that I am currently using. Thank you all for the input. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks all for you assistance.[/quote] Well, CD-RW disks are "harder" to read than just normal CD-R's. Something about the material that is burned into reflects the laser light less than CD-R making it harder for some cd drives to read them.

Although I would have figured that most cd drives these days are made to read almost anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
