Hi folks...Great forum btw...I came here in hopes of finding light at the end of a longgggg tunnle....I bought a Sony DVD RW DRU-810A dvd burner and for the first 3 months everything was fine but now I cant't get a dvd to burn in Nero to save my life...I updated my firmware and have made sure DMA was enabled and even reformatted my pc thinking it was a problem with Daemon Tools leaving something behind that I couldn't find...Here it is several days and at least a dozen coasters (btw I'm using the media HP DVD+r 16x). Here's my Nero log file: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - 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 Recorder: <SONY DVD RW DRU-810A> Version: 1.0d -

I cant see a lot wrong with this log, your firmware is current, only error is media error, try using different media.

@thegr33n1 Eventhough your Sony DRU 810A has the latest firmware, I'm wondering why can't it recognize the MID (media identification & code)? Are you trying to burn an ISO or Image file? If so, then make sure you use or put a check on "Finalize Disc (No further writing)". I've found that sometimes it's better to burn ISO or Image file with Nero Express.
