I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say these versions of Nero are...pirated? If so that could be the problem and the release group the uploaded these versions online did a poor job with cracking the program. If not then a firmware upgrade sounds about right and not to mention checking out the device manager for any hardware devices with a yellow icon, which should indicate something is wrong with the device. Something else I would try is, burning DVDs with another program. If you're burning DVD Video, be sure to output the file as an ISO if you're using DVD Shrink. If not then download and install PgcEdit and create an ISO with that program and burn the image file with ImgBurn. That is a great program to burn DVDs, the quality reads from Nero indicate the upper 90s when talking about quality writes to the disc.

I'm trying to burn a data DVD though. Any recommendation for a good one?

Hmmm, Nero does have it's share of problems...which proves my theory once again that Nero shouldn't be used to burn DVDs. Which so happens to all the rave at the Doom9 forums. I've come across a few hitches with Nero, the continued 6.6. versions and tried it with other programs without any problems. As for another program to recommend, I'm not sure if Alcohol 120% writes DVD data to discs but you may want go that route. It's been so long since I've used that program but I vaguely remember that it does, either way it's a good program to have regardless. Another cause which happens during encoding is overclocking the CPU or RAM. Keep your setup at stock speeds and try it that way. Also be sure to check out the event viewer in the Administrative Tools tab in your control panel. Click on system once you're in there, see if any errors were logged with either a program or piece of hardware. I've come across a few bad burns as of late and with the help of a few members here, it turned out to be bad sticks of memory. RMA'ed it this morning and glad to have everything working as it should.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
