I bought sony's DRU 810A, initially it was working fine, I wrote about 8-9 DVDs with it. But then it started giving me problems. I can still read the DVDs and read and write CDs. But I cant burn DVDs. It gives error after lead in startd and 1%(I dont exactly know what it means) I connected my drive to my friends computer and burnt a DVD it worked just fine, i wrote some video files. I even reinstalled the system and tried to burn DVD but could not do it. I have windows XP SP2 and i use nero to burn discs. I would be greatfull if you can help me. Following is my log file. Please ask me if any other information is needed. Brajesh Agrawal None \\I removed the no. from this place.

A few versions behind, I would update to this bug free version http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe Update to 1.0e from here http://www.sonyisstorage.com/bv_downloads/cpce/dvd/810A_1.0e.exe Your burner doesn't like your discs, hopefully the firmware update should fix that..apart from the updates cant see too much else, if I've missed anything someone will pick it up, Cheers.
Hi, Thank you i was finally able to write a DVD , I updated the firmware to 1.0e and also the newer version of Nero. Thanks again Brajesh
Hi, There is something more i would like to know, you said that my dvd writer is not liking the media, what will indicate that my drive is liking the media.
