When I try to burn a dvd nothing happens with the sony burner but nero tells me to insert a cd in my computer drive to burn. Really confused and unable to use my new burner. Thank you
I'm gonna need your Nero log before I can say anything definite. But it sounds like your drive isn't recognizing the disc you are using? May I ask the model number of you drive, the firmware, and what type of disc you are using. I would say update you firmware here's a link find your drive's name and so on and so forth. http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php I'm still going to need that burn log, it should be in Ahead\Nero\NeroHistory.
Thank you - Sorry but some of what you said is over my head. But I will try my best to supply the information. model DRX-810UL using fujifilm dvd+RW When I bought this yesterday at a chain electronics store they were not sure if I would need + or - because it is foreign video clips and I use a region 2 or region free dvd player that I hope to play these dvd's on. I have my clip saved to my desktop as the store person suggested so that I can download but when I try it says something about "no compatible file found". Thank you for any ideas and help.
I'm going to need the brand of teh burner also, sry i didnt' say anyting in my prev. post. So you aren't using nero then? And did you try the link I gave you?
It is a Sony DRX-81OUL and yes it came with the nero software , installed it. I looked at the site but I have not a clue what firmware is so I do not want to add to my problems by plowing ahead without a clue and really making a mess of it. Thank you
I'm just going to assume your firmware is out dated, but with no burn log my replies are as useless as... well your reply w/o out a nero log. Again it should be in Ahead\Nero\Nerohistory. I can't seem to find your drive on that site, but I found a site w/ step by setp instructions. http://sony.storagesupport.com/dvdrw/downloads/510FW11a/Instruction/510Aupdate.htm If you don't know how to get to nero log jsut search it.
Dont you just love it when posters do NOT report back to let you know how they went...sometimes a little thank you would be appreciated.
Thank you for your help - I did not get back to you because I had to sleep - when I get home from work tonight I will try again after looking at the sites that you posted.
..was just passing... your Nero log lives in c:\program files\ahead\nero\nerohistory.log but DO NOT post your serial number which usually begins with '1A21' or similar. You can differentiate sections via this section divider "====== *** Nero-Burning Rom, History File *** ======"
If you don't know how to get to that just open start and so a search for "NeroHistory". It'll pretty long but like creaky said we really only need the last log.
I have probably put to much information but rather play it safe since I don't know what you are looking for - thank you very much for the help.

Your nero is out of date, current version is 6.6.0.16, but I don't think that should cause too much probs. You have Nero's InCD packet writing thing, get rid of it using's Nero's own tool. I can't seem to find firmware for your burner. Apparently you are burning a CD, I thought you were burning a DVD.
Thank you - so uninstall the Incd part of nero software installation - I just bought this on Sunday and it is out of date. I was not trying to do a cd it is a dvd that I wish to do. And that is confusing to me also. But I think it is my fault - as I got slightly emphasis on slightly more familiar with nero I found a way to try dvd. Any feed back greatly appreciated.
Are you using Nero ROM or Nero Express. I think you are just choosing teh wrong option in Nero. In the box it will have your burner listed several times, you jsut have to choose the one that has "DVD" in prenthesis next to it.
Thank you everyone - yes it is so new to me that I am making dumb mistakes - the last poster suggested just the wrong option and I looked and realized what they meant. So I did burn the dvd - it said successfully - just not successfully to me - in the lasonic player I have it just showed "nav 1" and two columns that both said "root". Hope this means something to someone. But at least I am a step forward - just the dvd does not play.
Could you explain your problem a little more in deatail, and maybe have the latest log from Nero, the one that was "Succesful".
Thank you - HEre is the latest log and I looked again at the Lasonic message and it was "smart nav1" and to columns that both only have "root" written in them and that is it.

I don't get this. How can it say burn succesful if it only wrote 1MB? And where is the list of all the drivers, did you get rid of teh INCD thing? update your Nero, you should get packet one and two only when you update nero. And this message is in your player? Have you trie dit in diff players? I've never seen that message before.
I only have one player - I tried to uninstall INCD but could not find it when I went to the Add/Remove in Control Panel. So I guess I better just reinstall everything. I should download a newer version of Nero? And I am not sure what is packet 1 and packet 2. Thank you for your patience and help.
