Hi, I am a newbie on this forum guys, and I have this annoying issue with Nero burning Moser Baer media. I´ve updated IDE Contorllers drivers, and firmware is 1.04, which is according to my investigations the latest one, and have cleaned burning lens too. However since now, it destroyed me like 5-6 cd´s and I am getting little bit *****. Any suggestions, clues, tips? Here´s log from Nero: 1A23-0009-3030-2351-9125-0344 Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 9/10/1999 12:06:00 ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.68, size=160016 bytes, created 7/22/2004 5:33:44 Nero version: 6.3.1.25 Recorder: <HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B>Version: 1.04 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.3.1.25 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 8192kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <SONY CD-ROM CDU5231 >Version: 52BS - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.3.1.25 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : Maxtor 6E040L0 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : SONY CD-ROM CDU5231 atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : Generic DVD-ROM 1.0 d347prt Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B F: CDRom0 SONY CD-ROM CDU5231 G: CDRom1 Generic DVD-ROM Z: CDRom2 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 57671680 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 383MB (392732kB) Free physical memory: 64MB (66248kB) Memory in use : 83 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 2.4.2005 CD-ROM (ISO) 11:31:49 #1 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6083 Iso document burn settings ------------------------------------------ Determine maximum speed : FALSE Simulate : FALSE Write : TRUE Finalize CD : TRUE Multisession : FALSE Burning mode : TAO Mode : 1 ISO Level : 1 (Max. of 11 = 8 + 3 char) Character set : ISO 9660 Joliet : TRUE Allow pathdepth more than 8 directories : TRUE Allow more than 255 characters in path : TRUE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 11:31:49 #2 Phase 90 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1855 Buffer Underrun Protection activated 11:31:50 #3 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 126 Reader running 11:31:50 #4 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 124 Writer HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B running 11:31:50 #5 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3899 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 11:31:50 #6 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3152 Turn on Track-at-once, using CD-R/RW media 11:31:50 #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 247 Last possible write address on media: 359848 ( 79:59.73) Last address to be written: 358577 ( 79:43.02) 11:31:50 #8 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 259 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 11:31:50 #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2162 Recorder: HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B; CDR code: 00 97 17 06; OSJ entry from: Moser Baer India Limited ATIP Data: Special Info [hex] 1: D0 00 A0, 2: 61 11 06 (LI 97:17.06), 3: 4F 3B 4A (LO 79:59.74) Additional Info [hex] 1: 00 00 80 (invalid), 2: 00 80 00 (invalid), 3: 00 80 80 (invalid) 11:31:50 #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 420 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 11:31:50 #11 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 813 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (CTransferItem) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 358578 (358578) = #358578/79:41.3 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 358576 blocks [HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B ] -------------------------------------------------------------- 11:31:50 #12 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 984 Prepare recorder [HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8320B ] for write in TAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00; Session Closed, disc fixated Tracks 1 to 1: 1: TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048/0x00, FilePos 0 307200 734674944, ISRC "" DAO layout: =========== __Start_|____Track_|_Idx_|_RecDep_|_CtrlAdr_ -150 | lead-in | 0 | 0x00 | 0x41 -150 | 1 | 0 | 0x00 | 0x41 0 | 1 | 1 | 0x00 | 0x41 358578 | lead-out | 1 | 0x00 | 0x41 11:31:50 #13 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1030 Removed 2 run-out blocks from end of track 1.

A "Session Fixation Error" is an awkward error to fix at first view, as you can get totally confused with all the apparent fix's everyone tells you to try, The ONLY Fix is simply, Try a totally differant kind of CD or DVD ie a differant manufacturer, also if your drive writes to Plus and Minus try the opposite, ie if your having problems writing to Plus drives try Minus, BUT MAKE SURE you buy a totally differant brand though.
Hi there, 1) You might want to edit your message, and remove your NERO KEY before someone steals it ! 2) I noticed this in your LOG: Memory in use : 83 % You are like me, you have 1000 little apps running in the background Also noticed you tryed to burn at 32x. I am far far away of beeing a nero log reader expert, but can you burn those media a slower speed ? Try one at 8x, 16x and see if you are still getting errors. I may be way way off track here, but it's something *I* would try. Good luck, making coaster is never fun for no one !
