Problem Burning Dvd Copies. Help!! - Club CDFreaks

cleopatra jones · 17-06-2006

i've been using nero for over a year now and it never has given me any trouble until now, it seems like it can only spit some copies a few at a time but if i want any more copies it gives me these errors, like track following error and seek no complete and i ended up wasting blanks. i don't why it is malfunctioning now. I tried removing it and re-installing it but no go. my hands are tied. can somebody please help me?!!!!!!

Welcome to the forum...

Please tell us what make and model your DVD drive is, and especially what brand of blanks you are using. If you could download CD-DVD Speed and find the manufacturer ID (MID) of the discs, that would be even better.

it's a hp dvd burner. hp dvd writer 740b ff24. i'm using sony dvd-rs right now, before that i used phillips dvd-rs. The MID is SONY16D1.

Just by any chance, when you are uninstalling nero, are you doing a complete uninstall? Deleting every trace of it from your computer, ie registry, program files, etc? (In case there may be some coruupted file?) Rebooting and then doing a fresh install?

Are you making a lot of copies back to back? If so maybe the drive is overheating. Also how are you making your copies. Are you copying to the hard drive first or are you copying from one drive to another? It's always best to copy to the HD then burn. Are you backing up movies? If they're newer movies it could be a newer copy protection kicking in.

Did the troubles start as soon as you switched from Philips to Sony?

cleopatra jones · 19-06-2006

yes, but i've always used sony before and it worked out fine. i don't understand it.

cleopatra jones · 19-06-2006

they happen to be copies and yes I do copy movies back to back a lot of the time. i backup my copies, don't burn to HD.

cleopatra jones · 19-06-2006

i click on control panel then add or remove program then click to remove the nero suite. it doesn't delete everything so i deleted what my computer would let me delete.
it would not let me remove everything that was leftover.
