I have been trying to burn a data dvd tonight and so far I have wasted 2 dvds trying to do this. Everytime I get a error message. Below, I think, is the correct log for this last time. I would appreciate it if someone could look it over and let me know what might be causing me the problem. Thanks Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.71 (0002), size=45056 bytes, created 7/16/2004 3:24:34 AM ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 11/2/2004 12:54:32 PM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.0.1.4 Internal Version: 7, 0, 1, 4 (Nero Express) Recorder: <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4040B>Version: A114 - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.0.1.4 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

Your log looks pretty clean, except 2 things below. Looks like your burner is going down, maybe it's time to get a new dvd burner. "KEY_HARDWARE_ERROR" usually means it's the burner that's going bad, perhaps the laser is going down the hill. I'm not trying to diss Ritek and I know Ritek is a good media, but lately I've seen a lot of failed burned from Ritek. So it's wise to try other high quality media like Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim "advanced azo/datalife plus" or Maxell (mij by Hitachi). Good luck!!
Thanks for the reply! I tried burning the dvd data disc using nero burning rom and everything went great! Perhaps it's just Nero Express acting up for some odd reason? But now I'm worried that I might need a new burner. Thanks again for the help =-)
