This version is full of bugs, uninstall, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html and then install this version 7.5.9.0 or a later version from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/ I have never heard of these discs, suggest you try Verbatim or Sony (made in Japan)
