Hey guys, I need some help. I am trying to burn CD's and DVD's and I'm having no luck what-so-ever. Yesterday I could burn them fine. But today, I made 5 coasters.....maybe more. I haven't changed anything program wise, or uninstalled anything either. I have all the latest MS updates, Nero, ASPI...etc

Here's the log:

If anyone could help me out, that would be great, I'm outta ideas for now. I've tried all the obvious things as well, uninstall Nero, delete, reinstall, etc.

First you posted the serial number of your nero edit and remove it

second it seems all you devices has DMA set to off, it need to be turned on (search this forum or google on how to turn dma on)

theres no option to edit the post, and the Serial was from a friends anyways, if I mod could delete it, that would be awesome.

Is the box overclocked in any way? Cables properly seated?

Yea, the box is overclocked a wee bit, um I have a Barton 2500+ Mobile, OC'd to like 2.5ghz, I think stock is around 1.87ghz. I still have decent temps, about 43 Celcius full load. Cables are good to go.

Then return to stock speeds (all) and try again....but let the system rest (switched off) for about one hour. This way electronics (caps) can discharge properly.
