Hi,
no probs for the English, I aapreciate the updated info.
Ok first thing that may cause problems is that you're running service pack 2 of xp. They've released SP3 quite a while ago and all software complies to this, so your first stop is MICROSOFT UPDATE to get SP 3.
Secondly, try burning at a slower speed, start from slowest and build up. Sometimes the disc spins too fast for the system to "spit" it onto the disc.
Thirdly try a different brand of cdr. Believe it or not, some burners work better with a different brand. If you are using unbranded cdrs, they can have a high error rate. I can have problems with Verbatim ones for example so I use Taiyo Yoden CDrs (one of the best bands!)
Fourth, make sure your version of nero is Genuine and then visit the nero website for any updates. if the updates do not solve your problem, contact nero support. They will ask you to download a system check file and then yousend them the results. They will anylze it and tell you where the problem lies as it's either the drive of the Nero Software.

Like I Say get SP3 FIRST (it can take a while to update, but it will save you a lot of futre computer incompatibilities) Hi, no probs for the English, I aapreciate the updated info.
