You are attempting to burn too close to the edge of the disc. Reduce your target size to 4300 in DVD Shrink/Recode.

Disc Manufacturer: CMC MA - G. AM3
Disc Application Code: 64, Disc Physical Code: 193

Terrible quality blank media which produce spotty results...try some quality Verbatim (MIJ or MIT) or Maxell (MIJ only).

These are Nero's own packet writing drivers that step all over Nero's own toes. I suggest removing completely from your PC via this clean tool.

i have the exact same drive. CMC's work great on it for me, but i have not updated to TS0J yet. also i haven't used that media ID

Disc Manufacturer: CMC MA - G. AM3

i'd try some SONY discs, never had a coaster ever from sony 08d1 media. i can tell you from my experience at least, they work well with that drive. you should get rid of INcd too.

[Chewy]

OK loco,
How did you ever find this?

http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/

[locoeng]

I've got mine stashed here.

That is an excellent link though chewy, I shall bookmark it.

[Chewy]

just a little trick of mine with the address bar, copy paste and backspace,
works wonders with broken links

[locoeng]

I'm at work and can't DL the links to see if they are broken...are they?

[Chewy]

a lot of the liteon ones are for firmware,

http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php

when the link breaks then try my trick

[locoeng]

Ok thanks oh hairy one.
