I've been getting the error pretty frequently or at least I'm guessing that is the error that is not letting my DVDs fully burn. The amount of the DVD that burns varies and is playable up until a certain point. I thought maybe it was the files but after another try or 2 the DVD will burn with no problems. Here is a log of the most recent burn that I attempted:

I apologize in advance if I posted too much of the log. I'm new, actually this is my first post I believe, and am not 100% sure as to what needs posted and whatnot. Any help would rock.

1st thing - let's edit out the serial # - don't need someone else getting it! It begins w/ 1C.

Your drive isn't fully recognizing the media you are using only that it's a +R. What brand are you using?
Is this a Dell pc? Your drives are probably BenQ but if this is a Dell you would need to use Dell supported firmware otherwise the warranty would be void. Still under warranty?

You are attempting to burn too close to the edge of the disc, reduce your target size in DVD Shrink or Recode (whichever you use) to 4300.

This should be a three line paragraph that would include the MID of your media...it's not there. Usually a firmware upgrade will fix this, but I couldn't find a current firmware listed for your drive. I did see that your 8701 is actually a rebadged BenQ 1640.

This is Roxio's driver, it is known to cause problems with Nero. My suggestion is remove Roxio in it's entirety via this removal tool: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml

EDIT: Ya got me again Binkie...LOL

Ok I will give those ideas a shot. Question though: Is there a way to keep Roxio? Nero gives me problems when trying to burn MP3 discs which is why I installed Roxio. I would get a "dedicated plugin needed" error with certain MP3s when I used Nero.

Also my PC is a Dell that I purchased a few months back.

LOL...we knew that.

Just one question, why do you want to keep Roxio? It causes so many conflicts with so many other programs. Here is a plugin package for Nero: http://www.cole2k.net/?display=NPI Give it a try and see if it corrects your problems when burning MP3's.

What media are you using?
You can try the rest of the suggestions 1st and if you still get the error than you may need to uninstall Roxio.

Question though did this problem start after Roxio was installed?

The other weird thing about the log esp. since this is a newer Dell is the hard drive is on the secondary ide channel and the dvd drives are on the primary. Usually it's the other way around. Just makes me wonder if they set everything correctly and securely.

I'm using Memorex for the time being. I keep saying I need to get some Tayo discs but keep putting it off or forgetting. I did "attempt" to install another burner that I had previously. Doesn't seem to work all that well then again maybe it was due to Roxio. I'm not quite sure. I uninstalled Roxio and am about to run the Zap.

I will come in here with my "standard" reply, believe me 7.2.0.3 is a shocker, this is my advice for those who ALREADY have it.
Nero API version: 7.2.0.3

This latest version of Nero is full of bugs, I recommend you uninstall, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html and then install 7.0.8.2 a more stable version from here
http://www.filehippo.com click on Nero 7.2.0.3 and then select 7.0.8.2 for a bug free version

I'm in the process of downloading 7.0.8.2. My connection has been bad lately so it'll be a good bit. Anything else I should do before I install that version? Should I uninstall my previous version? Will my serial still be good to go? I've ran the Roxio cleaner. Should I do that DMA before or after the new install?

Sorry for all the many dumb questions. I just don't really have a clue.

Version 7.0.8.2 seems to be more stable as gwen said. The audio conversion/ cd copy doesn't thrill me.

Now those memorex - I think you know the answer to that:)

Yes turn the DMA back on - before or after you install Nero. Doesn't matter. You can install the new version over the current one. Your serial should be recognized. Just write it down in case.
Then try again and let's us know how it went.
If it fails again post the new log.

No it won't be a problem - your hard drive is on.
You'll just do it for the primary ide channel which is the port the drives are on that are off.

I normally don't say this but since this is a Dell still under warranty hold off on flashing this w/ a BenQ firmware.
Let's make sure DMA gets back on.
Even if you get another failure after all the other suggestions(we're talking memorex here) we can check and make sure you're still not getting device not ready error.
Do you have any other discs besides memorex?

Unfortunately no. I've never had problems with them in the past. Granted I'm having some problems lately. I've had some Memorex discs that have lasted me 2 years or more. But I've went ahead and turned the DMA and did everything in that thread for my primaries. Everything seemed to go OK with the restart and reinstalling. I have the version of Nero that you suggest. I'm gonna go ahead and try a burn and let it go while I'm at work. I work the good ol' graveyard shift. Hopefully things will go smooth. I'll check back tomorrow and let ya know how things go.

Oh since you've probably in the US (midnite shift time) check out this site for Taiyo Yuden:
http://supermediastore.com
Or Best Buy, Staples etc. have weekly sales. For good stuff usually 14.99 for 50 - look for Verbatim or made in Japan Fuji, Sony or Maxell.

Well I just got home and saw that my burn had completed successfuly. I actually used a different method that usually didn't work. Usually I use DVD Shrink to just copy the files to a folder and then I open Nero separately and create the DVD b/c if I used both my burners to just rip the DVD and then burn right away it never seemed to work. Regardless though it did work but it took an hour and a half. A friend of mine says it takes him under an hour total. Is there a way to check is everything is A-OK with both my burners and everything is optimal?

Glad to hear you were successful!
In Shrink if you have deep analysis checked or a quality enhancement checked it will take longer.
Keeping as much memory free as possble is also good. No multitasking and shut down any unneccessary processes can help with speed.

Sure we can check and make sure everything is set up correctly.
Post your last log from Nero on this successful burn.

When you said you attempted to put another burner in what exactly did you do?

Does Nero save logs automatically after a successful burn? Or do I need to save it like I did with the error? Also when I opened up iTunes it gave me this error:



I'm assuming it had something to do with the whole DMA/drivers thing I did with my burners. Will everything be OK after I reinstall iTunes?

Lastly about the other burner. All I did was hook up another burner, basically the same one as my PC came with except it's a different model number, I think 6391, dunno for sure. But I hooked it up with the other IDE cable and set it as a slave drive. Pretty sure I did. It seems to be working OK. I did another burn before work with both drives and it went fine.

Nero usually saves the successful ones to the same text file. Just scroll down to the bottom of this file and it should be there. The text file can get quite long!
For iTunes uninstall it then reinstall and see how that goes.
Nero shouldn't interfere w/ iTunes - I have iTunes on a pc that I use Nero alot on.
See if you can post the log - we can see if there might be driver conflict.

edit: spelling

Where would the log be located? I searched in the Nero folder and didn't find anything. The log that I posted it gave me an option to save the log so I did because of the error.

The logs are here:

They're usually separarted by something like this:
