Nearly out of memory.If you multitask while burning - don't, and free up non critical applications using the 'Task Manager'. Reduce burning speed to 4x to test. Indicates a media error - but it may be the burning speed. If cutting back the speed is of no avail, consider switching brands (Verbatim is good).
Just like to add this This version is full of bugs, uninstall, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html and then install this version 7.5.9.0 or a later version from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/
Thats something I wasnt aware of, they've obviously changed it's location, try here http://www.nero.com/enu/support-nero7-tools-utilities.html
