I am having trouble burning dvd's. I have tried using Nero 7.3.02 and dvd decrypter 3.5.4. Both error out at the end of the burning session. I have tried different media. I am also not doing anything differently than before. I am using Win XP SP2 with 512mg of ram, my burner is a Pioneer dvr-106d(which i have updated to the latest firmware). Here is a copy of the Nero log from my last attempt. Is my burner going bad or is something else wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try and free up some more memory by shutting down unnecessary programs that maybe running, no internet usage. Also try to do a spyware scan and defrag. Here is some info on this error. http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/dvdguide001.html Try burning at 4x and see if this makes a difference. Also your DMA is off on this drive you need to turn it back on. Here is a guide http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/checking DMA.pdf
First off thanks for your response. I took my plain dvd-rom out and left the burner as the only device on that ide controller. Closed as many processes as I could and tried again. Here is the last Nero error log. If anybody has an idea feel free to jump in. I'm starting to think I need a new burner. It is almost 3 years old.

This is a horrible version of Nero7, it is buggy. Uninstall, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html and install this version http://www.filehippo.com click on Nero 7.2.0.3 and then select 7.0.8.2 for a bug free version. Implement what Arniebear has advised also.
Thanks for your guys input. I tried all of your suggestions to no avail and finally bought a new burner. Working like a champ.
