ok,well i have got the demo version of Nero 7,and ive been trying to burn some videos onto a memorex dvd-r.But everytime it transcodes everything,and is nearly finished,it comes up with a message like,please put in empty disk to write to,but it is an empty disk!Please help me!
Post a log for us to look at. It will be in your nero history folder in program files. You only want to post the last one though, not the entire history
Well go to My Computer, then Local Disk C, then Program Files, then Ahead, then Nero, then Nero History. Something like that. Then scrool to the bottom and find the last burn you tried to do. Copy & paste that last bit of the log here.
Ok i downloaded that,did all the stuff you said,but it wont let me copy and paste,is there any particular bit you need where i can tell you what it says or whether it is ticked or whatever?
I presuem you replied to the wrong thread, cos i'm helping you in two. No need to copy and paste. Write it out yourself.
Yeah i think i did!All confused now!But here goes.Umm i did all that program file thing,Nero, and then Nero 7,but none of it says Nero History :S
Ohh ive found it now,but i dont know where the last bit starts ao i'll paste it all.Hope its the right thing,its probably not though =/(btw i went on Core to find it) 1C83-7618-10E5-477X-4022-6KMA-**** Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 02/11/2004 13:54:32 NT-SPTI used Nero API version: 7.5.7.0 Using interface version: 7.0.5.6 Installed in: C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\ Application: ahead\NeroVision Internal Version: 7, 5, 7, 0 Recorder: <HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481B>Version: 1.02 - HA 1 TA 1 - 7.5.7.0 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ? === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : SAMSUNG SV8004H atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8161B atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481B atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8161B D: CDRom0 HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481B E: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 40894464 (0) Byte BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 255MB (261488kB) Free physical memory: 77MB (78980kB) Memory in use : 69 Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 6.11.2006 NeroAPI 19:19:14 #1 Phase 111 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 282 DVD-Video files sorted 19:19:15 #2 Text 0 File SCSIPassThrough.cpp, Line 583 LockMCN - completed sucessfully for IOCTL_STORAGE_MCN_CONTROL 19:19:15 #3 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3133 HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481B Buffer underrun protection activated 19:19:42 #4 ISO9660GEN -11 File Geniso.cpp, Line 3313 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 19:19:43 #5 ISO9660GEN -11 File Geniso.cpp, Line 3313 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 19:19:43 #6 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3435 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using CD-R/RW media 19:21:27 #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 313 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 19:21:27 #8 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2863 Recorder: HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481B Medium not present 19:21:27 #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 485 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= Insert empty disc to write to.

Ok I have found four problem. Your burner is a CD burner not a DVD burner. To burn DVDs you will need to buy a new drive.
UK. But im getting a new computer for x-mas,so will that come with one that will do it,do you reckon?
Yeah it should have one in it. I am UK too, was just gunna reccomned a few, tis all Check it has DVDRW drive, not DVDROM. If it is DVDROM it will read DVD, but not burn DVD.
Ok.and how will i find that out!Will i be able to find that out in like adverts in magazines what one it is?Sorry,im rubbish with this stuff,i usually just use my computer for music and msn :]
Yep, it will be, but you'd have to open up the box first. Maybe you have xray vision ddp! That's soo cool ;-)
