Have XP SP2 (Home) Nero 6 something-should be latest CDRW/DVD drive - a Toshiba SD-R1612 I am able to copy/make back ups onto a CD. But when I try on a CD-RW disk I get an error msg-nad the back up fails. Any suggestions??? Thx
CD/DVD Burner Lite-On Single Layer (LDW-851S) Crossflashed to Sony Dual Layer (DW-D18A) Windows XP Pro SP1 Build 2600 Nero Burning ROM 6.6.0.15 I have the same problem, only difference is I don't get the "error msg-nad" and my backup doesn't fail, at least I don't realize it does...Nero tells my the disc was created successfully, but when I eject it and put it back, there is nothing on the disc. Any help.
Hello. Make sure you have Nero 6.6.0.18 installed, the most stable version. If you don't, run the Nero 6 Clean Tool: http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/us/Nero_6_CleanTool.html Then download 6.6.0.18 from here and install (2 packages): Package 1: http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe Package 2: http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/NVE-3.1.0.21_no_yt.exe Also make sure your firmware is up to date. Compare your current version to that in this database: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php Also check to make sure you don't have any Roxio software installed. Its drivers will conflict with Nero's. After uninstalling, run the Roxie Zapper: Earlier versions: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml For Roxio 6: http://kb.roxio.com/content/kb/EE6000061 Nero InCD and other packet writing software can also interfere. Nero InCD is uninstalled with the InCD Clean Tool located here: http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/en/InCD_Clean_Tool.html If you post your Nero History log, more specific help may be able to be provided. The file is in this path: Program Files > Ahead > Nero > NeroHistory The log file is divided into sections, one for each attempted burn. Each section begins with a Burning ROM header followed by your name and program serial number. [bold]Be sure to delete your name and serial number before posting.[/bold] Post only the section of the log dealing with this problem, maybe the last section if you haven't burned anything since.
Have Nero 6.6.1.4 - so go back to 6.6.0.18 ? My Toshiba firmware is TB01.

Hello. Your firmware is up to date. Yes downgrade to 6.6.0.18. Version 6.6.1.4 is problematic/buggy. Run the Nero 6 Clean Tool and then download and install 6.6.0.18. Links in the post above. Unless you have to have InCD, uninstall it with the InCD Clean Tool (link in post above). It's drivers are active as your log shows. You might try slowing the burn speed down to 32 or 24X and see if that helps as well. Some burners just don't like some media sometimes. If all the above fails, try a different brand.
laddyboy - forgot to mention- I went to 6.6.1.14 because what ever previous version I had, I was having the problem. Just hope what ever version I had was not 6.6.0.18 !

Hello. Th log doesn't seem to be a Nero History log or not all of the log is posted. Can you burn CD-Rs OK? Is it just CD-RWs that won't burn.
Hi. Are you sure that log was from the NeroHistory log file and not from another log file. It's easy to get them all confused. There aren't any drivers displayed is why I'm asking. You may need to run the Nero 6 Clean Tool again as well as the Nero 6 Driver Clean Tool and try reinstalling 6.6.0.18.
Laddyboy. removed 6.6.0.18, then re-installed both the 6.6.0.18 & 3.1.0.21 - the 2 packages from your first post. Then used the InCD clean tool.

ahhh. Odd, Those were just a sample of my CD's that I copied to my PC. The CD used would be quite old and I thought this copy protected issue new (2-3 yr old issue). I have copied these before onto an SD card and have played on my Palm TX and even a MP3 player (SanDisk) so did not expect any problems. Since these are CD's I own and for personal use, any way to unprotect/turn off DRM? Thx again,
Oh, one other- do I need the 3.1.0.21 - The Nero Digital package? I have a MP3 converter tool - dbPower Amp. But do not see a option to turn of DRM.
For backing up copy protected CDs there's a bunch of choices. Among them are these programs: Alcohol 120%, Blindwrite, CloneCD, IsoBuster Link to guides/software: http://club.cdfreaks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=81 One of the easiest approaches is to use AnyDVD from Slysoft. It works in the background to overcome copy protection on DVDs and CDs. http://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvd.html The second Nero package contains all the Nero digital programs like NeroVision Express for editing video and making menus as well as converting other video into DVD compliant video; Nero Recode for reauthoring and compressing DVDs; Nero Showtime, a software DVD player; and a couple other utilities for designing covers and dealing with photos. If you don't deal with DVDs you might not need the package.
Thanks for the sites. As far as the Nero Digital- The PC came w/Power DVD and other DVD related, so seems Nero Digital is duplicative. Plus I did not have the Nero Digital/Showtime, etc in my older version, Nor do I recall having it with 6.6.1.4 - or may be I did not notice it.
I'm still not sure in my own mind what's causing the problem for sure. Did you try to burn to a regular CD-R instead of a CD-RW? If that works, there isn't any DRM causing problems, it's just the CD-RW media.
Nope, not the blank media. I have done everything suggested so far in this thread (sorry for not getting back quicker) nothing works...I can write to CD-R's DVD-R's and DVD-RW's NOT CD-RW's. I have used the following: *Memorex 80Min/700MB CD-RW *Imation 80Min/700MB CD-RW *Maxell 650MB CD-RW *Sony CDRW700 700MB CD-RW *Verbatim DataLifePlus Burned the same project to each one. Burning same project from a different computer...Works Great...Now give me a couple hours (Kid Duty) and I will let you know if the project burns successfully after I remove my Burner and place it in another system. I can't give a solution, but I can test what does and doesn't work.
I have no clue why your burner will burn everything but CD-RW. It doesn't make any sense at all unless the drive is faulty in some respect. If it won't burn CD-RWs installed in another system, the fault has to be in the hardware itself.
