Hi, i've got an external disk drive and my disk appears in disk drive e. i click on it and it says ' only part of a readprocess memory or writeprocessmemory was completed.
can you help?

When you try to copy data from your CD drive, or you attempt to install a program from your CD drive, you receive either of the following:
The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.


Only part of a readprocessmemory or writeprocessmemory request was completed.

This behavior will occur if Windows is configured to use a transfer mode that the CD drive does NOT support.

To resolve this behavior:

1. Start / Run / devmgmt.msc / OK.

2. Expand IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers.

3. Double-click the channel where your CD drive is connected, typically the Secondary IDE Channel.

4. Select the Advanced Settings tab.

5. For the Device that represents your CD drive, toggle Transfer Mode to PIO Only and press OK.

Hi, thx for getting back to me. I've tried what u said and it didn't work, did i mention i was trying to play a game not copy or backup anything. Whenever i look on the internet it says about a burner, what is it?
Anyway, when you said choos the device that represents your drive, it just says device 1 and 2, how am i to know which one. There is another message now it says ' e:/ is not ccessible incorrect function'.
What do i do now? also the game and drive is brand new and i know i've installed everything because 2 games already work.

thank you, (please don't use technical terms because i've no idea what ur talking about!)

Is the external drive a CD/DVD drive?

A "burner" would be your CD/DVD drive.

Do you have two CD/DVD drives?

Are you saying your only problem is running this one game?
