Please Help if theres any thing you wont me to add just tell me how to do it n ill do it.. im not very up to everything on this yet!

so its been six months .....this is kinda late but whatever.... I am having the same problem with nero 6 and my dvd burner. i reformated and reinstalled hardware and i installed xp pro. could service pack 2 be the culprit???
I have had the same problem. Formatted my hard drive, installed Windows XP. Installed Nero 6 and everything was working very well, as soon as SP2 was installed it all turned to custard. Uninstalled SP2 and working back to normal. I reckon SP2 is the problem in this case. Cheers

@jessmas - i see that's a logfile entry from XP's SP1.. - my God that version is out of the bible, update to latest 6.x version, 6.6.0.18 (Update-Package 1) from here - http://www.nero.com/nero6/enu/nero-up.php - burners' firmware's way out of date if your burner is a retail Pioneer drive, ie 1.22 is the latest firmware for a retail Pioneer drive. However if it's a Medion OEM burner, 1.20 is latest firmware for your drive, see here - http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1754 - yup, Nero's too old to recognise your burner, update Nero - DMA needs to be ON, fix via this - http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/FAQ.htm - try better discs; here's a couple links referencing similar disks - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/226307 http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2/271141 - hmmm, lucky considering the logfile..
Thanks for all that Information Creaky. Have updated Nero to 6.6.0.18 and is up and running. My DVD Burner is a Pioneer DVR-107D version 1.13 so do I have to download the update for 1.13 or can I go higher, say to 1.22? Thanks once again for the info. Cheers
hi, nice one so far. i've edited my previous reply to be more clear re the firmware, i always crossreference old replies for newer similar replies is all. Anyway, yup you just apply the latest firmware 1.22. keep us posted
i forgot about this topic i started a while back.. its all good people after a month after that i went on to the website of the maker of my cd re-writer and i thought it was a dvd re-writer aswell but it aint anyhoo i just updated the firmware n it was all gd after that but now i got a dvdr now so im happy thanx all anyways
Thanks again Creaky As you can see I have Nero 6.6.0.18 and Firmware version 1.22 and also SP2 installed and its all working.
