I bought Nero 7 Reloaded in order to burn my dvd movies that I have stored on my hard drive. I am using windows vista on a Sony Vaio laptop that is less than 4 months old. I have used Nero before on my previous computer with XP, but had to upgrade to Nero 7 because 6 is not compatible with Vista. Out of 7 DVD-R disc's I have only successfully burned 3 movies. I use Nero express to make my movies and do everything the way I always did before with Nero 6. I have never had a problem with burning a disc. Now with Nero 7 after about 5-10 min into burning the disc, It stops and gives me the error "Invalid Block Address". I don't understand what this means or how to fix it. I have carefully reviewed all the settings, tried to record at a lower speed, I'm not using overburning and all 7 of the dvd's are the same brand. I have searched through the help files to no avail. I am posting a error log for all to review. Can someone please help me figure out why Nero keeps ruining my dvd's? If you need any additional info, please ask. Thanks to all who comment!
