							i've been looking around for answer about some of my dvds going bad after a few wks. i use nero with lite on sohw 1633s at 8x & then i test with dvdinfo. the dvds check out great as soon as burned, then later on they have problems in player & even on the burner. sorry to bother u with this but i haven't been able to come up with an nswer. 
i'm losing dvds wkly.i'll also post this in the forum. thinking on slowing burner dn or just buying a better burner. tnx in advance

							What are they doing?
 Do you set your target size so that you don't burn too close to the edge of the media?
 
 Burn at 4x?

							hi..let's have LAST section of your Nero log which lives in c:\program files\ahead\nero\nerohistory.log but DO NOT post your serial number which usually begins with '1A21' or similar.  
 You can differentiate sections via this section divider "====== *** Nero-Burning Rom, History File *** ======"

							ps you posted your entire Nero log. no biggie, your serial number was therefore dotted thru the log, so i just edited and left the last section of log in the post...

 There are alot of ppl in this forum that preach not to burn at more than 4X or half the rated speed of you blanks.  I have discontinued subscribing to this school of thought (for now), but maybe reducing the burn speed will benefit you.
 
 Thats all I see right now, hope these few and relatively easy fixes get you burning again.
