Hi Experts, I have been using the combination of H/W and S/w to burn DVDs since Nero 7 was released. I have had no problem till now. I have the updated version of the burner firmware. I received a Power calibration error. I went through some of the forums threads, but could not find anything which would work for me. I am down to suspecting the media, but I have had good reports about it; I am using Moserbaer pro DVD -R. 16X. The first log below is when I received a Power calibration error. The second log is after I re-installed the firmware and I got a burn process failed error. Any help would be great. neeraj Log I (Power Calibration Error) Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.7.5.1 Internal Version: 7, 7, 5, 1 Recorder: <SONY DVD RW DRU-710A> Version: BYX5 - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.7.5.1 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

Basically I can see 2 things in both logs.... I dont know who told you these were good discs, try Verbatim or Sony (made in Japan) Slow your burn to 4X.
Thanks Gwen for your analysis. I tried burning at 4X and then 2X, got exactly the same log. Could you elaborate on what you meant by this being a problem: Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sense Key: 0x03 (KEY_MEDIUM_ERROR -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What does the sense key signify? Thanks Neeraj
That error code signifies your poor choice of media...your burner doesnt like it. But you used the same brand of discs.
