Hi, Can anyone please help? My SONY DVD RW AW-G170A reads the DVDs, but when i try to write DVD, the following error appears and the disk is ejectyed after 65-67% burning. Do not go by the size to be written. I have reduced it to 4000 MB. Speed 8x. had the firmwares. still the problem continues. Is there any problem with the writer itself? Thanks in anticipation. I have already lost 7 disks.... user acs Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=169792 bytes, created 2/22/2007 9:40:34 AM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.5.14.0 Internal Version: 7, 5, 14, 0 (Nero Express) Recorder: <SONY DVD RW AW-G170A> Version: 1.73 - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.5.14.0 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

Are those Moser Bayer discs that you are using? It seems that your burner does not like them, maybe because compatibility(lack of) or because you were burning too fast. I don't know where you are located, but if there are available I would try some Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden or Sony discs(especially those made in Japan by TY).And of course, slow down the burning speed.
