Mate, media is the FIRST thing to change, not the last. That's what is so sad. So many people persist with their "investment" in junk that isn't even good for last year's XMAS decos because they have them and are somehow determined to burn good on them. What hapens is they just waste time.

Look at media quality in my signature for a categorisation of media.

And anything less than 100% scanned good is a bad burn. Period.

the LG is probably one of the best external burners,
IEEE 1394 / USB 2.0 External DVD Burner Model GSA-5163D -

I am sure blutach would agree on this model.

[blutach]

blutach agrees on internal burners. blutach thinks externals are risky.

You don't make an exception for laptops?
even older ones?

Mayb I am stupid...

I read yr acticle 3x already..

Yr best media is burning with 95%to 100% reliable results rt ?

So that means the brands are sony , maxwell (but u told me tat is the worst media with RITEK - the seond burn I have ?) TDK .. the rest think my side dun have ... sigh...

Pls advise .

First try to understand brand name is different from media codes,
usually one company makes the media, another puts their name on it.
Verbatim is the safest thing to buy, made in japan(small print/outside package) is another thing to try and find. Try and find some 8x dvd-r,
made in japan or by verbatim.

[droozy]

Oh in fact the first one I burn is using made by verbatim 8x dvd r but from Taiwan .. however , My secondary DMA was not turned one... so that burn is faulty . Will try to buy one now and try again.

Thanks u so much !

there are a lot of ways to screw up a burn, a lot of i's to dot and t's to cross.

Dear all...

I manage to use the first verbatim dvd-r to burn again.. this time verify with nero cd dvd speed 100% ok

Does it mean I can always use the verbatim dvd -r as my future dvd -r ? Does it mean that there are no problem with the dvd playing in any machine ?

So if next time I change my laptop again but still using the same software nero 6 and dvd shrink and with verbatim dvd-r , plus with all the settings like the DMA .. will nott likely have any problems with my dvd burning ??

My physical memory is only 80mb .. is it because i have internet running at the same time ? Wat happens is my physical memory gets low ?

To all experts .. do u think u can check the below whether are there any more errors ?

Really thank u so much for answering all my questions !

It takes a while for it to sink in, but droozy you get an conditional A for
effort, other than that free memory problem that's a beautiful nero
log! Thanks for posting it, kinda makes it worthwhile to know some
people take our advise.

[droozy]

Thanks alot Chewy !!

That means is a yes for all my questions as above ?

so usually as long as after nero cd dvd speed verify 100% it should be ok rt ?
That is the best verification rt ?

And that free memory thing is due the internet running rt ?

Thanks you so much !!! I really appreciate all the help tat the few experts gave me !
