    Hello All,
    I am having the hardest time trying to burn a simple data DVD with Nero 6 on XP. I'm just trying to backup my 20+ Gb of music that I have on my HD. I've tried everything! If I grab like 4 Gb of music and try to burn a data dvd using Nero, it burns fine with no errors. But when I try to read the DVD, it hangs, crashes my pc and gives me the dreaded BSOD, then I have to reboot. Using Nero, I've tried burning an MP3 DVD(the format of all of my music), Data DVD, and Backup DVD. They all burn with no issues. But when I try to read any of these DVD's.......blue screen! I tried burning my "My Pictures" folder also to rule out corrupted data....same results. This should be a simple thing...what am I doing wrong? Yes, I've tried single session and multisession DVD's to no avail. A side note...I can burn movie DVD's just fine, and I have the absolute latest firmware for my Sony DRU-530a. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm sick of making DVD data coasters! Thanks.

    I am having almost the exact same problem. I tried a google search on the problem and it led me here. I am using XP, Nero 6, and a Sony DRU-710A. The only difference between your problem and mine is that I can read the DVD fine in my DVD writer, but have had no luck reading it with my DVD ROM drive. Hopefully someone here can help us out. Thanks in advance for any help!
