[poonchee2]

Hello I am using Rawdump and it's saying I have a faulty drive and I bought one that should work if u have a fix let me know ASAP

What model number is the drive that you are using? There are only a few listed compatible ones (http://www.gc-forever.com/wiki/index.php?title=RawDump):
LG GDR-8161b
Hitachi LG GDR-8162b
Hitachi LG GDR-8163b
Hitachi LG GDR-8164b
Also make sure that you are using the latest version (2.1) available here: http://www.gc-forever.com/forums/download/file.php?id=478

Also an alternative that you can try is FriiDump, which may work better: https://github.com/bradenmcd/friidump

BUMP again

You can stop bumping. Sometimes people just don't know about a solution, especially since RawDump is hardly used around here these days.

Anyway, are you using the latest version of RawDump? If I recall correctly, 2.1 was the last version released. That may or may not make a difference, but it's worth trying.

Both Rawdump and Friidump are very picky. Try changing the order of plugging in the drive, inserting the disc, and starting Rawdump. If it doesn't work, you generally have to remove the disc, unplug the drive, and close Rawdump before you can try again. In some cases you have to restart the whole PC after Friidump crashes in order to make it recognise the drive again. It's not a very user friendly process.

The casual Bump

Like Shonumi said, please stop bumping. It won't attract more knowledgeable people, it'll just make people annoyed.
