I recently downloaded the latest Nero software to fix a previous write error problem and it worked. After a few successful burns while using DVD Shrink with Nero (as I always have done) the DVD will burn 1/2 way to 3/4 and give me the error message below. Any advice? Here is the message: 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 5:35:34 PM Nero API version: 6.6.0.8 Using interface version: 6.3.1.4 Installed in: C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\ Application: ahead\Nero - Burning Rom Recorder: <TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B>Version: GA02 - HA 0 TA 0 - 6.6.0.8 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 0 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI === Scsi-Device-Map === CdRomPeripheral : TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST CD-ROM GCR-8483B atapi Port 0 ID 1 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : WDC WD1600JD-22HBB0 atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552 E: CDRom0 HL-DT-ST CD-ROM GCR-8483 F: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 73400320 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 501MB (513792kB) Free physical memory: 185MB (190252kB) Memory in use : 62 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 19.4.2005 NeroAPI 4:22:35 PM #1 Phase 112 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 276 DVD-Video files reallocation started 4:22:35 PM #2 Phase 114 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 276 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 4:22:35 PM #3 Phase 111 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 276 DVD-Video files sorted 4:22:35 PM #4 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 4:22:35 PM #5 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B running 4:22:35 PM #6 Text 0 File AudioCompilationImpl.cpp, Line 842 DRM: StartDrmRecording(RealRec:1, ImageRec:0, Copies:1) DRM: Beginning burn process. 4:22:36 PM #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3293 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 4:22:36 PM #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3293 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 4:22:36 PM #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3153 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 5:35:50 PM #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 259 Last possible write address on media: 2298495 (510:46.45, 4489MB) Last address to be written: 2286111 (508:01.36, 4465MB) 5:35:50 PM #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 271 Write in overburning mode: NO 5:35:50 PM #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2316 Recorder: TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B, Media type: DVD-R Disc Manufacturer: CMC MA - G.

There was this additional message in a different window: Burning did not complete successfully! However all output files were successfully encoded, and thy are ready for burning with appropriate DVD burning software.
and Neither of those are good!! Put your writer in DMA mode heres a link that will show you how http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/DMA.html CMC Mag is the worst possible media you could use to back up your DVD's try some better quality media.
I see several things: 1) Please edit out your nero serial # at the top of the report.
