Hi - I have almost never had any problems burning DVDs, but the last day or two, I keep getting a Burn Process Error and I can't figure out why. I've tried different programs. I used to use DVD Shrink and then Nero to burn, but that didn't work. I have a feeling it's something simple that I just can't figure out - Can someone help me?

Hi mintpez You are almost out of memory - very low. Need to free up more. So multi tasking and close all unneeded programs. If you haven't very recently do a virus & spyware scan, disc cleanup and a defrag. . Good media but your drive doesn't seem to like it - try taking the burn speed down a notch to 4x. If these don't do the trick - may want to try and burn w/ ImgBurn (free) if you haven't already. ImgBurn Try these and let us know!
Okay, I tried everything you said, except for ImgBurn. I still got an error. Here's the new log.

Please help!
Ok let's give ImgBurn at shot. You tried another type of media too RicohJpn and still a no go. From the log looks like you are burning an iso. So open ImgBurn. Go to mode and select write. Now under source pick the iso you want to burn. Under destination pick your burner if not already selected. Under settings pick your burn speed. Now click the write button. Try that and let us know.
