    Are you inserting the blank into the drive before choosing the burn speed? Have you checked to see that DMA is enabled?

    May need a firmware update. You can check that in decrypter - go to tools>drive>check for firmware update. A pop will display the version you have then take you to the firmware page to see if there is a later version.

    What media are you using - can be another cuase.
