Ummm, what media are you getting the error with? Brand/rated speed/+R or -R would help.

I had a similar problem with the same NEC burner.

Check what firmware you are currently using on the burner.

If required update via the German NEC site - www.necd.de V 1.09 I think is the latest.

It's a small file that can be run from within windows

Good Luck

Hi,

The firmware seems to be ok on an OEM model - mine is an oem and works ok.
