I would suggest buying different discs, as you are uding low quality discs Your Drive does not like them Nero 8 is reported to have some bugs in some versions. Try burning with Imgburn (is free) and see if that changes anything. However- get different discs. If you look around on the site, you will notice that Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, or if you can find discs Made in Japan( Soy-Maxell-Fuji), those are good quality media.
Well, we know is not Nero. We also know that TDK-CMC MAG blow, which means- get some quality discs. Aslso, I was looking at your burner, and it seems that the max. DVD speed is X8, and you have X16 discs. http://www.nec.co.uk/DVD_RW_ND6500.aspx Is your firmware up to date?
changed the disks - works fine now. Thanks for the tips guys, i got ripped off with those disks and didn't know they were cheap ones
Sorry mate, many of us did that first time! I got ripped with a pack of 50 Imations 2 years ago! Learn and teach( I think that's what someone around here on AD says) Glad it works now!
