Thanks for the thoughts folks. Yes, the links didn't take right in here as I enclosed them in <> and the board incorrectly underlined the ending >. Clicking on the link and doing an "open in new window" is the pinnacle of convenience if you ask me, I don't like the logs posted inline with the message. (my thoughts)
I appreciate the news that 7.2.xxx series is not as stable as it should be, that's the sort of news I was looking for. I'll try some of my tools and see if I can't pin down what's going wrong as I have the time. Honestly, despite that news I'm not sure I want to revert to an older version, I just don't have the time... I should have discovered this out before updating. Rather than reverting, maybe I'll just wait on the next updates.
But it IS working. But I noticed yesterday as I continued to burn some backups after two I'd reboot, just to make sure I didn't waste media. In Nero Xpress I don't tend to do a "burn another project," I tend to shut it down completely, thus the problem develops from one Nero session to another, thus I needed a full reboot.
I like the idea of trying at 8x, but I'll have to do it 3 times. What about trying with RW media, that may prevent waste but will it be a valid test as opposed to the Verbatim -R?
I will say that my last two burns yesterday were at 2x because of RW media and all was successful. So despite it all, I burned 6 successful disks yesterday, 0 failures, with 2 reboots and the last 3 with RW media. ??
Lastly, I might try a test of 3 burns but NOT shutting Nero down between jobs but choosing the "new project" option. I know the first time this bit me, when I started this thread 2 days ago, I DID shut Nero Xpress down between each burn and within a few moments relaunched it. Don't yet see how a memory leak would kill the burn randomly but a memory problem at program cleanup would continue to get worse each time the program was shut down. ??
Lastly, someone in another thread looked at a log and found the mem load at 82% and commented about what else the computer was doing. I checked on my mem load, in the two logs I posted the computer was doing nothing but the burn, it's a back office/support machine, very clean machine because as a developer myself I can't stand it otherwise, explorer and Nero only as running apps, and my mem load before starting Nero and the burn was 36%, but in the logs it was reported as ~67% once and ~77% the other. So I'm not sure how helpful this mem reporting is, at the very least, one must understand it includes whatever Nero is demanding.
Thanks again for all the thoughts. Certainly if anyone knows anything more on this I'd like to hear. It's an odd problem and I think ya'll are correct it is more related to Nero than media, drive, etc.
Best,
