you have InCd installed, go to nero website and download InCd Cleaning tool and uninstall InCd. That conflicts with Nero and you get burning errors. Your firmware update is indeed JWS6: http://www.memorex.com/downloads/software/JWS6.zip. That maybe will fix media incompatibility, as it seems your drive does not like it. I would get some TY, Verbatims or Maxell-Fuji-Sony MIJ discs. After upadating the firmware, Ritek could also work. When you say your computer freezes when trying to update, do you have any other programs runing? Make sure you have no media in your drive. Close any other applications. Some recommend doing it in "Safe Mode".
@1lonewolf Turn this option off - as you can tell this option gives you a higher chance of coasters! Nero will save to a temp file then delete it when done.
Thanks Im uninstalling now with InCD tool. I do have the update and I do have everything closed when trying to install the update the hr glass comes up for about 10 secs then I go to task monitor and it shows to be processing still then I open nero and nothing comes up I reboot the puter then nero opens up... jws6.exe is not in task mon anymore i check it in nero tools and it shows to be jws5 still... much appreciated for you help
@binkie7 New addict, or I just seen it now? Congrat! I looked twice for that Burn on the fly, and twice I missed it,after your post! @1lonewolf When you download your firmware update, you should get a Zip file.Extract that to your desktop. The new folder made should have a little application named JWS6, and underneath it says XFlash. After you closed ALL applications and removed any media from your drive, double click that application. It will take a while for it to scan your drive.
unzipped JWS6 to desktop clicked on it and same problem. do you think it takes a long time being usb external drive?
it might be. When I tried,it took les than 2 sec to find my drive. How long do you wait? Try to disable the other drive while doing this.
Bam!!! firmware updated Thanks alot I disabled the other drive and it found the external drive.. I was stumped much appreciated.. now lets see if it works be back
ok it completed sucessfully but it wont work as a dvd, in nero info tools after disc status it says Open not finalized why is that? any clue?
@1lonewolf You burned the .iso file right? Shouldn't make a diff - just open the disc image and pick the iso file and burn. Can you post this nero log?
looked in nero and found nerohistory here is what became of that burn Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 9/10/1999 11:06:00 AM 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: 6.6.0.18 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 18e (Nero Express) Recorder: <Memorex DVD16+/-DL4RWlD2>Version: JWS6 - HA 2 TA 0 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <> HA 2 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

@1lonewolf I'm at a loss - it looks like the disc was finalized. I just compared an iso burn of mine to yours and am not seeing anything out of whack - well to me anyhow. If the disc was finalized (all -/+ r's should be) Nero Info tool would not show it as open - not finalized - disc status does even appear on ones finalized. Burning an iso wouldn't make the disc not finalize. The only thing I can think of is you have multisession clicked instead of no multi session.
