I am having all sorts of problems burning Cd's and Dvd's. I keep getting errors when I burn using NERO,and I know my burner is fine, I just cant work out what the problem might be. It got so frustrating that I formatted my computer, and i was then able to burn fine for several days. I am now getting the same problems as I did before. I have tried different media, the latest was simply to try a rewritable disc out of desperation. Here is the latest log of my burn error: 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 6:35:34 PM Nero Version: 6.6.0.16 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 16b Recorder: <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B>Version: A209 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <PIONEER DVD-ROM DVD-116 >Version: 1.22 - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : ST3120026A atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : ST360021A atapi Port 0 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : PIONEER DVD-ROM DVD-116 atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B E: CDRom0 PIONEER DVD-ROM DVD-116 F: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 40894464 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 255MB (261600kB) Free physical memory: 98MB (100480kB) Memory in use : 61 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 14.11.2005 CD-ROM (ISO) 8:16:54 PM #1 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6356 Iso document burn settings ------------------------------------------ Determine maximum speed : FALSE Simulate : FALSE Write : TRUE Finalize CD : TRUE Multisession : FALSE Burning mode : DAO/96 Mode : 1 ISO Level : 1 (Max. of 11 = 8 + 3 char) Character set : ISO 9660 Joliet : TRUE Allow pathdepth more than 8 directories : TRUE Allow more than 255 characters in path : TRUE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 8:16:54 PM #2 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 2948 HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B Buffer underrun protection activated 8:16:54 PM #3 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 8:16:54 PM #4 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B running 8:16:54 PM #5 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 8:16:54 PM #6 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on UltraRaw 96-Mode, using CD-R/RW media 8:16:55 PM #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 337349 ( 74:59.74) Last address to be written: 179240 ( 39:51.65) 8:16:55 PM #8 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 8:16:55 PM #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B;

Lets see... Nero is up to 6.6.0.18 now. http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/enu/nero-up.php 512mb is the recommended smallest memory size for DVD ripping, so if your going to try with 255mb, you need to shut down everything you can to free up more memory. ouch! terrible media. When you said you tried different media, try different good media and trying to burn crap media at 8x is asking for it. You might salvage this at 4x, but i wouldn't try on CMC brand. I've had it fail at 1x, so slowing down doesn't always help. another classic CMC error footprint. Your DMA's are on, your firmware looks up to date. Try updating nero, use better media, and slow your burns down. Maybe try to get another stick of memory added if you can also. Good Luck
yup cmc mag = NOT good media try ,Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim and burn at 4x max. also dont run other programs while burning your dvds
I think this whole time the problem has been my virus protection program! I closed it (AVG) and tried to burn and everything worked fine even with the same media.
hmmm so that did it ,great i would still consider strongly using better blank media ,long term its well worth it
