Wario, I don't mean to be so vague, but this really has been discussed a few times. Well here's the heads up on what I'm having you do. 1) your having finalizing problem 2) you can't burn to a +/-R 3) if your successful burning to a +/-RW then you need to update your aspi layer 4) if your unsuccessful burning to a +/-RW, then might try a different version. ie Platium RF Before you burn, make sure you run your drive select. Open Platinum -> click settings -> highlight your burner -> click save.
