this is gonna sound crazy but i cant locate a log- it appears the program just crashes and doesnt generate one. C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7 has nothing no historylog no nero log nothing outside the install one
ya i think since the nero process locks up at 5% it can generate the log.... C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core (no log)

Upgrade Nero to a more stable version: http://www.softpedia.com/get/CD-DVD-Tools/Data-CD-DVD-Burning/Nero-7-Premium.shtml Update your firmware: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2095 If that doesn't help, buy some Verbatims or Taiyo Yuden medias.
So, do you use a Plextor drive or a Memorex drive?!: The Plextor drive should have the firmware updated also, but it seems it has no problems, the burn was successful. The failed burn was with the Memorex drive. Find firmware for that one. Those discs, ,... I recommend you change them.
i win...ty guys everything works now in addition to what you guys suggested i changed the way my bios recognizes the drive. i have no idea what ultra dma 2 is but i set it back to 1 and im burning now 100 % success rate.
