Hi ctcwicked
We need a little more info to help
What is the new burner
What machine is it installed into
What o/s

To give an example - I just upgraded our secondary computer froma PIII 800 to a PIII 1.2g and changed the motherboard as well. The old machine burned DVD ok. The new machine has a problem in burning DVD. I am running XP Pro and burner is a HP DVD420i It took me three days to find a work around and now I can burn again.
I hope this helps

I take it you are running XP as the operating system

Have you checked the
DMA settings - see for details http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/IDE-DMA.mspx

APSI versions - if the drivers are not all the same version can create problems see Praetor's site at http://www.hazza.dsl.pipex.com/faq.htm#ASPI for a guide and the file

Has the firmware been upgraded - Check NEC's site

I hope this helps
