I have read through a lot of the threads on here and on other sites, basically when I try and burn a DVD, it will start transcoding (I'm using Nero 6) and then it will get stuckon 'Writing Lead-in' and then I get the power calibration error message. I'm using Maxell Discs and have been able to burn a data disc and one dvd,although I can't remember what I did to make that happen. Looking through other peoples logs, the parts that worry me are highlighted.If someone could decipher these for me, I will be eternally in your debt!

Get some Verbatim brand disks instead of the Ritek. Make sure the disk package says 'AZO' or 'Advanced AZO' - don't buy the cheaper Verbatims (Life Series). Consider having Nero save the output to a folder on the HDD and use ImgBurn to burn it to the disk - it's arguably the best burning software. If you were to use DVD-R instead of the +R, you can have Nero do a simulation burn. This verifies that Nero and the burner can communicate properly - nothing is actually burned to the disk. In ImgBurn settings, under the 'Write' tab, you can elect to turn on 'Perform OPC before write' - this tests the optimum burn setting and gives a warning of possible problems before the disk is sacrificed.
