    i overburned something and apart from fusking the cd-r( i dont care) my burner has been acting quite wierd.!
    cd's are writing alot slower than usual and for some reason when i try to burn anymore than about 650mb on a 700 mb cd it wont let me anymore!
    which is very weird because it used to all ways work.
    im using nero, tried disc at once, track at once, different cdr, everything.

    this happpened to my frined and he had to reformat his pc. i really dont wanna do that because all my work and data is on it plus its an interruption.

    have u heard of damage cause by overburn b4?

    Check that the ASPI layer isnt corrupted.

    Use the Nero info tool, within Nero

    Not neccesarily the best idea there since the Nero tool will report incorrect ASPI state in many cases. Use the ASPICHK that comes with most ASPI distributions. If you are concerned about your ASPI installation visit http://www.hazza.dsl.pipex.com/faq.htm#ASPI (there's also a quickie kinda explaination on my opionion regarding Nero InfoTools)

    Yes that does happen. More common in the older models and to an extent on the more recent models it depends on how much you overburn by :)
