Here is a copy of what I posted at CD Freaks. Maybe u guys can help me. I dont know whats the deal....hopefully my log gives u all the info u need...what I can tell u though is I have no problems with my cd burner....and the media could be the problem but I have burnt like 6 with the dvds I have so I dont think thats it either....it just works sometimes and most of the time doesnt and I am so sick of wasting my time was hoping u guys could help.

Ive tried XCopy, and CloneDVD...no difference I can post a new log with the Tayos if u need me to. PLS HELP
Ive tried that. Ive tried 2x 4x 6x 8x....nothing Seriously to everyone reading this who hasnt purchased a burner...stay away from Sony/Lite-On
Lite-On's are very good burners, have not had one coaster using nero or IMGburn, with TY's or Verbs Have you tried a different burning program? You could post this in the DVDXCopy forum, you will probably get more help there http://dvdxcopy.afterdawn.com/
Ive tried DVDXCopy, CloneDVD, Cheetah Burner, I could prolly try more and more and it wouldnt work. burns CDs perfect though
