Hi, I am using a Dell Latitude D610 Laptop which comes with NEC ND-6500A DVD+RW drive. I've updated via official fw from dell's site to 2.03E but I see that there's this 2.25 fw which I'm confused about and can't update to that fw. Anyway, I updated my fw due to the disc-at-once burn error on my newly bought DVD-R by sony (ver 2.1, accuCORE). It works with my previous DVD-RW disc but not this DVD-R. Was wondering what's the problem. I'm using nero 7. Thanks!
you need to copy and paste a Nero Log so we can see what happened, found here: Nero 7 history log location: Program Files>Nero>Nero 7>Core>NeroHistory.tx

Nero doesn't like virtual drives..... turn them off while burning. your drive is old and you're using Sony 16x media burning at 2.4x not good. you should be able to burn at 8x if you're not or can't then the drive and Nero is not recognizing your media properly. use older media, 8x media and burn at 4x! this is a Roxio/Sonic file that interferes with Nero..... delete Roxio/Sonic programs and try again! good luck.
So what you're saying is that the DVD-R Sony disc I just bought is not compatible with my writer? And also, what is a Roxio/Sonic? I've never heard of them before. How do I find the program in my computer to even uninstall in the first place? =/ Sorry for being dumb.
You can also update your Nero to 7.10.1.2 from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/?2893 Heres the "Roxio" clean tool http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml
I've done the above and upgraded to Nero 8.2.3.1; used the removal prog too. The same error still occurs. =.= I can't seem to find the history log in the new ver. help. =(
