Everytime I try to burn something in Nero Express it keeps failing at about the half way point.

It is reccommended that you have a min. of 512mb of RAM for DVD burning. So don't multitask during burns...and if you can upgrade your RAM. Also make sure you use good media like Verbatime, Sony or Taiyo Yuden.
Thanks Ripper. I don't Multitask so that shouldn't be a problem. I've tried burning with Fujifilm and imation and I keep getting the same error. I was wondering if it could possibly be my Hard Drive since I have a external and tried burning a file on my girlfriends computer and get a error as well UPDATE: I tried using a diffent media and I got the same error. I'm really starting to think it maybe my hard drive. UPDATE: Seems it is my external Hard Drive. After I moved a file from there to my internal everything worked fine. Thanks to Ripper for the help
