Hello all, first time posting for me. I have been reading the forums and getting great advice from people here that has solved all of my problems so far. Until now, guess it was inevitable? I have been burning for almost a year now using Shrink and Nero, and Decrypter as needed. I took advice from a recent thread and upgraded Nero because the last three DVD's I tried to back up have all failed no matter what I have tried. Shrink and Decryptor were up to date. I am wondering if it is a media problem (hoping). I was using Hypermedia discs and they were working up until now. I could not get any Verbatims today so I picked up a few Maxell DVD-R and tried that with no other programs running. Same crap (I have been simulating because I ran out of beer for the coasters). Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!
