Hi Guys, As you may have guessed I'm NOOO here and was looking for some help. Running XP Pro, Intel P4 3.2 GHz, 1GB RAM and have recently installed a Toshiba SD-R5272 DVD +- R/RW drive. I'm just trying to burn some data to a DVD with Nero (OEM) 6.6.0.1 with no luck...even the simulations fail. The media is Verbatim DVD-R 1x-4x. My first problem was a Promise Ultra66 card I have kicking around in the system. After getting the burner on the mobo IDE at least I can get drive info. I do still have an internal IDE Zip 100 in PIO as the second device on that IDE channel...is this a bad thing? The burner is using DMA. Here's a recent NERO log if anyone has an idea what's going on. Any help appreciated of course!

FYI, I have upgraded to the 1031 firmware for the drive, been through Adapter ASPI, NERO ASPI and Force 1.7 ASPI. XP Pro is on SP2 and I grabbed the latest for the Intel 865 Chipset. My bad that I forgot to mention that in the original post. Anyway, not much luck finding help on Data burning...guess it's not as glamorous as all the video burning. Thanks in advance... Frank
