Hi Folks,
I too have a 1693S, on a system running Windows XP SP2. Currently I get around 50% hit rate on burning workable DVDs, as opposed to coasters. I have KS0B firmware installed and using
Nero 7.0.8.2. (I have tried Nero 6 as well). It is very frustrating but I will be persevering with trying different media as this could be part of the issue. I do seem to get better results with burning at lower speeds (x2) rather than burning at x8 - although Nero doesn't always present me with the option of burning at the lower speeds - it seems to only present me with the speed of the disk and nothing less (any ideas?)
Regards,
