The SmartBurn Utility supports the LDW-851S. Whenever you see that error it is likely because of an improper installation of ASPI drivers. I used killaspi.bat from ForceASPI to uninstall ASPI altogether and this let SmartBurn use SPTI instead. If you have Windows XP/2000, then you can do the same, but if you have Windows 98/ME then you don't have the option of using SPTI and you'll need to reinstall ASPI or try another version or something.

ASPI and SPTI are just different "drivers" that let software communicate with hardware.
