Hi,

My Dell laptop's media drive is a "QSI CDRW/DVD SBW242U". AccurateRip doesn't seem to have any calibration figures for this drive, although it is listed in the known drive list, but as '[Purged]'.

I'm trying to use dbPoweramp CD ripper (r12), and whenever I insert a CD I am prompted to calibrate the drive. However, I've tried about 30 different CDs (most of which are listed in the Key Disc list), but none are recognised and I am prompted to "try a different Key Disc". Is there something peculiar about this drive or do I really not own any compatible Key Discs ? :(

The drive is purged because it has non consistant offsets, it is not a great drive...

Is this because it doesn't have "accurate stream" capability, or due to a different problem?

Do not know.
