I realize we all have different systems and specs that we use but as someone who works with computer systems a lot at work, I see how a lot of software has to be tweeked at the admin. level just to make it compatable with everything else. So just think about average home users who just hit "Download" for everything. Think about how you are just clogging up your systems.
For myself I use AnyDVD, DvdShrink, Nero burning rom. I have over three hundred burns and only 2 have been bad and AnyDVD updates fixed those, The Fog and The Cave. I have a decent burner,BenQ DW1640 and I also use good media, TYs @8x. But my advice, for what it's worth is clean your systems out. Find the 2 or 3 apps. you need and ditch the rest. I know it can get a lot deeper than this but I just wanted to scratch the surface. I have read so many post from others and they start stating all these apps. they are using in combination with each other and I think... no wonder they are having so many problems. Thanks for allowing me to imput.
for this reason, i've recently started manually creating a system restore point every time I install or uninstall something. if something's not right, zap it back then figure it out before trying again.

i recommend people do the same since troubleshooting can be a pain in the butt especially if it's something simple like the poster "forgot" or doesn't think it's relevant to mention that they're running 18 different burning programs in their thread about anydvd not working...
