I have been burning movies for a while with nero and it was working great until a few weeks ago. Now every time I try to burn a movie, i get an error message. It will sometimes get to 97% then fail because of an error. I have uninstalled and reinstalled nero a few times and updated it but nothing has working. Please help.

The most obvious problem is that you are using CMC mag discs, probably memorex and you are burning at 16X. Try verbatim or Sony (made in Japan) as CMC mag discs are horrible quality. Slow your burn to 4X You have Roxio installed, it clashes with Nero, to remove, run this zapper http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml
