This version is full of bugs, uninstall, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html and then install this version from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/ I dont like these discs, I recommend Verbatim or Sony (made in japan) You have Roxio installed, it clashes with Nero, to remove, run this zapper http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml
Thanks for your reply but i had not a single trace of luck..i did everything you said though i dont have roxio installed. again invalid disc whatever media used and ''could not perform start of disc at once'' the box of write method (dao and tao)is permanently greyed out and cannot be changed.It seems that disc at once is not functioning at all.

The link I provided for Nero update was for version 7.5.9.0, as yet I know nothing of the latest version 7.7.5.1 Your log indicated you DID have Roxio installed however it is not showing up anymore. These are horrible discs, I have already advised what discs represent "Good Quality"
The link you gave me had this nero.The question is how to enable disc at once function with a greyed out box? perhaps this will solve the problem
Recorder: <_NEC DVD+-RW ND-6500A> Version: 2.40 your firmware is over 2 years old newest firmware is 2.03e get new firmware here - http://www.micheldeboer.nl/firmware/ peace
Silly asking for sure, how do i update the cd rom driver? Ive never done this before and when i double click the exe file i get ''target is not found correctly'' By the way wih Roxia that i now installed there is the same problem i cannt get it work
Nobody? Double clicked the exe,system properties update from a known location,safe mode,deactivation of the antivirus etc gave all no result the same error appeared ''target cdrom is not found correctly'' Is there probable that i have a hardware problem?
Revert to version 7.5.9.0 from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/?1881 but first run this clean tool to remove 7.7.5.1 , http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html and get rid of your CMC Discs.
Did all so im sure that is not software related.Tried Tdks and Verbatims with the same result. Besides not every single program that i have can write dvds Nero,Roxio,Shrink,Decrypter same error. Is there a way to flash the firmware that i dont know? Seems like a hardware pain.
I managed to make it work hopefully alone! All people that have nec cd dvd roms or others that get the error "target not found correctly" when they try to flash their cd dvd rom listen: 1.Download the newest firmware for your burner 2.Go to http://binflash.cdfreaks.com/#download and download the appropriate tool. 3.Flash your rom using the tool and the firmware you downloaded. Now it worked like a charm for me and i was so lucky that it was not a hardware fault as my guarantee has expired.
