Suddenly no correct rips anymore

[Domser]

Hi there, been using dbpoweramp for years now. Past days I have been ripping quite a few CDs and suddenly I inly get incorrect Accuraterip messages, everything is being re-ripped sometimes only a few frames. Still Accuraterip says it is not to be trusted.
I tried different Reade, same. I uninstalled programme even with the app that kills the prefs.
Everything I rip turns up with errors.

I configured Auccurate and that worked. Switched C2 on and off.

What could have happened? Not both drives died on me. I ordered the LiteON hoping that will be better.

Any ideas?

Also the files created, since this started, have faults.

Help please I still have thousands of discs to rip..

silences, clicks etc. all CDs now need frames re-ripping, even CDs that were accurate 2 days ago. My CDs are all like brandnew, no scratches, dirt or anything.

Ripping ar 3x speed now instaed of 30x - all extremely slow. Not a single CD is accurate anmore. I had not done or changed anything on my system.

You said you have 2 CD drives? and both act the same?

yes.

I also did memorytest - all is ok.

I find it strange that I configured both drives with accuraterip after reinstall of software, that worked perfectly. But, after that not a single accurate rip

That is what I had done - did not work.

But - success. I just exchanged the SATA cable and now it works again!!!! Immediate perfect accuraterip again.
Maybe the cable git broken when I switched between drives. What a very strange problem.

Glad it works again and the new Liteon drive will arrive this week, so all should be even better.
