Help me please. Nero will not burn on my dvd drive. It is a i/o magic drive dvdrw. It gets all the way up to the point right before you burn, I get this error message: [Sorry your compilation can not be written n this kind of disk. Please inset a disk of the correct type or modify your settings of your compilation to make it compatible to your current disk.] Disk required for compilation:cdrw Then it stops. Now the file is much larger than what a cd holds. I have put a blank dvd in the drive. The dvd is a fujifilm brand 16 speed. Here is the log: 1A20-8203-0139-2394-4252-0541* Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 10/26/2004 10:35:32 AM Nero Version: 6.6.0.14 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 14d (Nero Express) Recorder: <ATAPI DVD DC 8X16X8X> Version: GREC - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.6.0.14 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : via Inquiry data (1) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI Connected to MMC as unknown drive with class-nr : 1 Drive is autodetected - recorder class: Std.

are you burning an image file? by that i mean an iso or bin/cue. if so just put in the cd-r and burn it? you would be surprised how big they can be and still be burnt.
