I have no idea what is happening here. I've burned many dvd's but they were all data discs. For some reason I can't burn a cue/bin image. I put in the blank dvd, choose dvd from the nero menu, choose burn image, choose the cue image file, choose the dvd writer, and then nero says: Disc required for compilation: cd-r/rw Disc in drive: dvd-r The image is way too big for a cd (over 2gb) so why does nero want to put it on a cd even though I chose dvd from the menu?! Is there something wrong with the cue image? It's just a text file but there isn't anything that says type=cd-r/rw or anything similar. Here's the error log from nero if that helps: name organization Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 2/1/2001 3:10:18 PM ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 11/2/2004 12:54:32 PM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 6.6.1.4 Internal Version: 6, 6, 1, 4d (Nero Express) Recorder: <SONY DVD RW DRU-510A> Version: 1.0d - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.1.4 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 8192kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

You have Roxio installed, it conflicts with Nero so I would uninstall it. You also have InCD this too I would uninstall from here http://www.nero.com/nero6/enu/InCD_CleanTool.html Your burner firmware is a few versions behind, update from here http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1597
Please remove your serial#, it is at the top of your log and begins with 1A20. You are using a buggy version of Nero, revert back to 6.6.0.18 after using the cleantool suggested by Gwen. http://httpdl2.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe Here is the Roxio clean tool: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml

With the error you're getting, it seems to indicate a problem with your burner, I noticed you have updated latest firmware which I thought would solve the problem, I have gone as far as I can go so hopefully someone will come along and check it out for you, good luck. This may sound a little stupid but have you tried a different brand of media?
