I am trying to use a different make of DVD-R than my normal. I usually use Snny but picked up Phillips DVD-Rs. I am unable to burn anything onto them as I get the message Illegal disc, here's the log: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.71 (0002), size=45056 bytes, created 7/17/2002 3:03:20 AM ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 11/2/2004 1:54:32 PM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.5.1.1 Internal Version: 7, 5, 1, 1 Recorder: <_NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A> Version: 103D - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.5.1.1 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

I have read previous forums but cant seem to get it sorted! Any help would be much appreciated x
the biggest thing here is that you have InCD installed with your Nero! that is a known cause of most errors with DVD burning by Nero! Uninstall InCD!! this is 3rd class media..... crappy media being used and that's why you get: Illegal disc and Burn process started at 2x (2,770 KB/s)! You shouldn't be limited to burn at 2x! if Nero is setting this option for you then it's really not recognizing your crappy media. By MIJs (Made In Japan) disk! I only use Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim (the only exception to the MIJ rule). Taiyo Yuden can be bought online at supermediastore.com, rima.com, meritline.com and other reputable online store. I always have at least 250 to 300 blank TYs on hand. this driver is from Easy CD Creator..... and sometimes interferes with Nero! here is a good read to uninstall this: http://www.plextor.com/ENGLISH/support/faqs/How_To/HT00001.html follow these suggestions and you'll be burning in no time! good luck and welcome to Afterdawn!
Ok thanks guys. Think i will take the advice that the dvds are rubbish and go back to my original ones. Cheers x
If I were you.... uninstall InCD!!! not worth having! and there is only one person who responded to you..... so who's the other guy????
