If your running W2k or XP I would select SPTI rather than
Nero ASPI and the write driver set to "generic-mmc". If that does not work, I'd suggest an upgrade of VCDEasy. I'm running VCDEasy 2.02 with my Pioneer 108 with no problems.
A simple soultion is to slip your old CDR Burner back in as well, I have left mine in and use it for 99.99% of CDR burning.
