Hey guys, this is my first time trying to burn DVDs and I've hit a snag that I can't seem to shake. After ripping and shrinking my DVDs (AnyDVD and DVD Shrink) I try to burn them with Nero, only to get an error saying that either my DVD burner could not be found (even though it uploads fine) or that disc-at-once failed. I use an external (USB) Lite-On LDW-811S with all the latest drivers/firmware I could find. My comp is a Toshiba Satellite, 1.5 Ghz Celeron, 512 RAM, etc. Any help? Here is the error log from Nero: Mike Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.7.5.1 Internal Version: 7, 7, 5, 1 Recorder: <LITE-ON DVDRW LDW-811S> Version: HS0R - HA 1 TA 2 - 7.7.5.1 Adapter driver: <USB 1.0> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : set to ATAPI (3) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

Hey mikey192 Do you have a 2.0 usb port in the laptop you can try on the laptop? From the log looks like your using a 1.1 usb hub - well Nero is showing this Adapter driver: <USB 1.0>. If you have any other external drives plugged in I'd disconnect them too. Another program to try to burn these is ImgBurn.
