@budala - - memory total is inadequate and free memory is atrocious, you'll be hard pushed to free up sufficient memory. You NEED to buy more memory as 256MB is barely adequate for Windows XP never mind dvd burning too. 512MB would be fine - for my info, i haven't seen Nero do this before. Try turning this off, surely only your system needs to check for viruses, not your burning software too. plus don't forget you have insufficient memory - this should be very good media - splat! - slow it down to 4x BUT also your memory is far too low. You NEED to buy more memory. maybe also try different media. ps just cus media is 8x doesn't mean you can or should burn at 8x
