My situation is similar to others who have posted regarding this, except my computer has never really burned Anything. And I'm getting tired of it. At first I thought my problem was the cd-drive, so I got another. But I still get the same problem. Nero hates my computer, (or the other way around) and I can not figure out anyway to burn either a DVD or a CD with any software out there. I am currently using Nero 8.1.1.0, but I believe Nero 6 is also somewhere else on the computer. Everytime I try to burn either a CD or DVD with Nero, it is unsuccessful after about 15 seconds and the CD/DVD pops out ruined. (Thrown away a good 50 cds/dvds trying different things) This is my most recent log from a data CD burn session. (by the way before I paste the log, I was also wondering, I heard somewhere if you have both iTunes and WMP or a combination of two burning softwares cd's cannot be burned. Is that true?)

DMA needs to be on, heres a guide to turn back on http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260038 These are NOT good quality discs, try Verbatim or Sony (made in Japan) I wouldnt burn any faster than 4X for these discs. There are later versions of Nero8 available. Cant answer your 2nd queerie.
People say Nero and roxio don’t get on got them both installed on my pc and have no problems do what gwendolin said and you might be a happy bunny
and get shot of the virtual drives for testing a burn... burn at 6x is your burner external samsung? seen 3 problems last few days on this burner...
