I hope some of you reading this can help me. I have an OEM version, 6.6.1.4, of Nero burning software - Nero Smart Start. I guess this is
the same as Nero Burning rom? I used to be able to burn (no encode) a 4.2 Gig data DVD or an ISO file of 4Gig at 12x in about 5-6 minutes and at 16x it would be around 4 and a half minutes. A couple of days ago it slowed to around 45 minutes whether it was at 12 or 16x speeds.

I have a Fujitsu 1.8 G Lifebook with 1Gig RAM
(I checked to see if it was DMA enabled after reading here): yes
Plextor 740UF burner (firmware updated)
120Gig HD
USB 2.0 Cardbus card.
Use Verbatim DVD-Rs exclusively upto 16x.

I noticed the problem after I ran Tenebril's Spycatcher, Spybot and Adaware to find and delete/quarantine the usual suspect

intruders and I got a "General Extraction error location IMP1" error when I put in a blank DVD-R in the Recorder. So I uninstalled any software I had installed recently, which was Ghostsurf by tenebril. I reinstalled Nero 6.6.1.4 and got the recorder to work but at incredibly slow speeds as explained above. I have also attached a log file after the most recent burn for ref:

Hello.

I notice your log isn't reporting the burn speed at all which is odd.

Version 6.6.1.4 isn't a very good version. I'd recommend downgrading to 6.6.0.18 which is a very good version. Run the Nero 6 Clean Tool first before installing the "older" version.

http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/us/Nero_6_CleanTool.html

Nero 6.6.0.18:
Package 1: http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe
Package 2: http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/NVE-3.1.0.21_no_yt.exe


I'm not sure changing Nero versions is really going to solve the problem, but one never knows. It could be the PCMCIA cardbus, it could be the USB cable, it could be the external enclosure, it could be the drive.


Have you tried burning a disk with ImgBurn or DVD Decrypter or any other burning program other than Nero? If that works, the problem would seem Nero related to some extent.

Thanks for the quick feedback laddyboy, I'll try the older version though I've never had problems with Nero b4. I'll also switch to the 1394 mode to see if that helps. If that does not work I'll try DVD decryptor.
