Hi Guys, I find a peculiar problem, where I can write to DVD+R and not to DVD-R media. I have read all the discussion threads related to this problem but none seem to help and nail the problem. So I decided to start this thread. Here is the log of this problem. ////////////////////////////////////////////// Windows 2000 5.0 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 9/10/1999 12:06:00 PM 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: <SONY DVD RW DW-G120A> Version: MYS1 - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : via Inquiry data (1) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI Connected to MMC as unknown drive with class-nr : 1 Drive is autodetected - recorder class: Std.

This doesn't seem like very much to be burnt to a 4 gig disc. This error indicates that your burner doesn't like your media. Try another brand. It is generally not recommended to burn at more than 4X, slow down your burn a bit. All else looks good, try a different media such as Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden or Sony, Fuji, Maxell (made in Japan).
