Hi, I have a problem and was wondering if someone could help me. this point I think it is the hardware, the drive just has something wrong with it. my cdr had worked fine for over a year now, using xp on my gateway laptop. just about a week ago, it started giving me errors and i started increasing my coaster colletion rapidly. i get different error messages (thats what led me to think its hardware, coupled with the fact that i uninstalled, reinstalled nero, aspi, burning with 4X only, tested rive with nero and roxio, no errors with simulation mode either) "qsi dvd/cdrw sbw 161 write error qsi dvd/cdrw sbw 161 invalid write state qsi dvd/cdrw sbw 161 could not perform end track and here is the log Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 9/10/1999 6:06:00 AM Nero version: 6.3.1.15 Recorder: <QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-161> Version: SX07 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.3.1.15 Adapter driver: <ATAPI> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-161>Version: SX07 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.3.1.15 Adapter driver: <ATAPI> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : IC25N030ATCS04-0 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-161 atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-161 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 40894464 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 253MB (260016kB) Free physical memory: 55MB (57116kB) Memory in use : 78 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 12.7.2004 CD-ROM (ISO) 10:14:09 PM #1 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6065 Iso document burn settings ------------------------------------------ Determine maximum speed : FALSE Simulate : FALSE Write : TRUE Finalize CD : FALSE Multisession : TRUE Multisession type: : Start multisession Burning mode : TAO Mode : 1 ISO Level : 1 (Max. of 11 = 8 + 3 char) Character set : ISO 9660 Joliet : TRUE Allow pathdepth more than 8 directories : TRUE Allow more than 255 characters in path : TRUE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 10:14:10 PM #2 Phase 89 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1845 Super Link activated 10:14:10 PM #3 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 118 Reader running 10:14:10 PM #4 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 124 Writer QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-161 running 10:14:10 PM #5 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3899 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 10:14:10 PM #6 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3167 Turn on Track-at-once, using CD-R/RW media 10:14:16 PM #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 245 Last possible write address on media: 359847 ( 79:59.72) Last address to be written: 358195 ( 79:37.70) 10:14:16 PM #8 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 257 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 10:14:16 PM #9 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2137 Recorder: QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-161; CDR code: 00 97 24 01; OSJ entry from: Taiyo Yuden Company Limited ATIP Data: Special Info [hex] 1: C0 40 98, 2: 61 18 01 (LI 97:24.01), 3: 4F 3B 49 (LO 79:59.73) Additional Info [hex] 1: 00 00 80 (invalid), 2: 00 80 00 (invalid), 3: 00 80 80 (invalid) 10:14:16 PM #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 418 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= Insert the disc to write to.

A couple things to look into: -Check the media(disk) brand to see if it is supported by your recorder. -Check for any firmware upgrades to your recorder. - The worst case scenario is that your recorder has a hardware problem and looses the track focus or something similar. However this is the worst case . You will need to get a new recorder if this is the real case. -Also try turning off Antivirus software. Lets face it: Nero doesnt like antivirus software shields enabled when writing.
