yes it is overclocked to 2.4 ghz.

I think your right it is the chipset....although I did try it in another ASUS board and I got the same thing with 2 different burners so I really dont have a clue what is going on here....I am going to buy some expensive media tomorrow to eliminate that for sure. Here is another log file of a burn attempt from one CD to another,,,,pretty much the same as the other log but you guys might notice something different.
