Power Calibration Error while Writing Cd's

- seatra 2006-09-12
I am getting this strange message some times when i write my cd's. it starts burning, some times at the middle of cd writing or at the beginning it says "Power Calibration Error".

what is this problem? what i should do now?

As i have seen, most of these power calibration errors occur due to poor quality of recording media. Try a good quality compact disk for writing and there should be no problem. (Try a blank orginal Sony Cd for example.)

i agree with great_one.

but i think you should also try cleaning your CD/DVD writer, with a cd cleaner disk. as i found, some times this fixes the problem.

btw, try a dry cd cleaner instead of a wet(solvent based) cleaner.

power calibration errors may occur due to power fluctuations/cd writer hardware failures too. If all the above suggestions fail, test for hardware failures in a hardware servicing centre.

Also you can try replacing your Switched Mode Power Supply Unit which may be faulty.
