Hey guys. I have been having this problem off and on..every so often when I have like three dvd's to burn I am able to burn the first DVD no problem but then the second and so on won't work, I keep getting the power calibration error. I don't understand why it does this. I am really looking for someone to give me a little help. Here is a log of the burn..please let me know!!

Just my 2 cents worth.....
Power Calibration is controlled by the recorder.
Before any write operation, all recorders must do a 15 step power test to determine the optimum power for writing to the CD. During the write process, it continues to do this test to get the best write/burn throughout the whole CD (called Running Optimum Power Calibration).This whole process is controlled by the recorder, though initiated by programs such as Nero.
If you receive the "Power calibration error" the cause will be either poor media, poor power, firmware out of date, or a defective recorder.
Try:
This error can be caused in conjunction with some (cheap) medias, try to burn at a lower speed or switch to another brand of discs.
The media your using isn't liked as suggested here by the log:
"Sense Key: 0x03 (KEY_MEDIUM_ERROR)"
Update the firmware of your recorder as suggested.
Make sure your burner is connected to the secondary IDE port/channel as master and set to deliver UDMA-2, keep it on a ATA 100 bus 40 pin cable avoiding fast ATA 133/166/233 and 266.
Try different configurations, such as connecting your CD-ROM drive to the primary IDE bus as slave and have only the recorder connected to the secondary IDE bus as master.
Uninstall nero from your sytem using the general cleantool, then reinstall version 7.0.1.4b (with out nero's INCD).
Make sure your mother boards chipst drivers are upto date, also make sure you're using Microsoft's standard IDE drivers as I believe they do the best job.
Make sure you don't have more than one installed burning application, this can sometimes cause problems (some software apps replace ASPI driver by their own) so install only one, if using nero then the one that comes with it is sufficient.
As also suggested, you can deactivate for test (only with Windows XP) "IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service", go to menu "start" > "settings" > "administration" > "services", search "IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service", rightclick and deactivate "starttyp".
If all fails, get a new burner.
